An early photographic view of the South Terrace at Lacock Abbey in Wiltshire, taken by William Henry Fox Talbot around 1843. This salt print from calotype (paper negative) is part of an album known as, ‘Lady Elisabeth’s album’. Lady Elisabeth Feilding was Talbot’s mother. On a decorative photographic bookplate on the inside front cover of the album is the inscription, ‘E.T.F. 1844’, which is the monogram of Lady Elisabeth Feilding. All the photographs in the album have their titles written underneath in Lady Elisabeth’s hand.
