Lewis Carroll (Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson)
Annie and Henry Rogers, June
A tender Victorian photograph by Lewis Carroll capturing two young subjects, Annie and Henry Rogers, believed to have been taken around 1860. The image reflects Carroll's well-documented passion for portrait photography, a pursuit he undertook with great seriousness alongside his literary career. The handwritten annotation on the mount, added in an unidentified hand, provides a rare archival notation attributing the work to Dodgson and offering a tentative date for this intimate childhood portrait.
