House and garden
- Made:
- circa 1910 in Bury Knowle House
An autochrome photograph of a house, garden and drive, taken by Etheldreda Janet Laing, c. 1910.
A young girl in a white bonnet stands to the left of the drive, probably one of Laing's daughters. The house is probably Bury Knowle in Oxfordshire, where the family lived. Laing took many photographs of her daughters in the grounds of the house. The autochrome process was the first really practicable and commercially successful process for colour photography.
