Lewis Carroll, Arthur Tress




 St. George and the Dragon- Lewis Carroll. 1875. Albumen Silver Print

Constructed reality depicting St. George, patron saint of England, who killed a child-eating dragon before it could devour a princess. Carroll used his friend's children to act out the scenes for him. He obviously does not intend to hide the staged quality of this image.
