This revolutionary medium created a gold rush of eager practitioners. Victorian Perthshire, in common with most areas of Britain, produced its own adepts of what was called the ‘Black Art’. Dr Paul S. Philippou, co-author of The Early Photographers of Perthshire will offer a glimpse of the contribution made by these photographers and make the case that Perthshire, though not the birthplace of Scottish photography, produced several pre-eminent early photographers amongst whom are included: David Octavius Hill, ‘one of the finest calotypists in photographic history’; Jessie Mann and Lady Kinnaird, ‘rivals for the accolade of Scotland’s first female photographer’; ‘outstanding local photographer’ Magnus Jackson; and Hugh Lyon Playfair who helped to make St Andrews the ‘Headquarters of the Calotype’.
