An album of hand-coloured photographs, produced in Japan in about 1895. The album depicts Japanese people, customs and scenery. The cover is lacquered and decorated in red and black with a stylised cherry blossom tree. Inlaid with panels featuring a fan, a screen and a view of Mount Fuji, the overall design reinforces traditional Western images of Japan. This album is possibly by Kusakabe Kimbei (1841-1934) who worked in Yokahama from 1885 to 1912. Previously, he had worked closely with the Austrian photographer Baron Raimund von Stillfried (1839-1911), buying his studio and stock of photographs in 1885. This also included negatives by Felice Beato (1825-1903). Kimbei's albums often included the work of these photographers alongside his own.

Album No 15, consists of 51 salt paper prints put together by William Henry Fox Talbot, which Talbot termed 'partial fill' as it is incomplete. It includes a range of subjects reflecting Talbot's interests in botany, classics, ancient history, architecture (cathedral project), travel and genre studies. Some of the titling is by Lady Elizabeth but there is no reason to believe that this was her personal album. It is likely that this album was used in the mode of an early Victorian scrap book and would have been brought out to visitors who came to Lacock Abbey. There is also the question of sentiment, ownership and display and these could have been private momentos taken by all the family.
