has gloss | eng: James Booker Blakemore Wellington aka J. B. B. Wellington (1858 Lansdown - 1939) was an English photographer who originally trained as architectural draughtsman, but an 1880s association with George Eastman in New York, drew him into the world of photography. Wellington was regarded as a pictorial photographer of note, while his work was clearly inspired by the paintings of John Constable and Thomas Gainsborough. He was invited to be a member of the Linked Ring Brotherhood in 1892, and was a regular judge on the selection and hanging committee of exhibitions held by the Photographic Society of Great Britain. |
