Analyse du document

Un article du Art Journal publié en février 1864, fait l'éloge de la série "Stratford-on-Avon" de Francis Bedford Stratford-on-Avon, and whatever other place is in any peculiar manner associated with Shakspere, will this year be certainly regarded with even unusual interest, and consequently good photographs, whether for the stereoscope or not, which represent Stratford itself and its neighbourhood, will not fail to be in great request, and to receive a cordial welcome. Mr. Francis Bedford, the photographer to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, has very opportunely published a series of stereoscopic pictures, which are exactly such as will be in harmony with the public feeling; they are of the highest order of excellence as photographs, and possess all the best qualities for which Mr. Bedford’s works are justly celebrated, and they also are as varied as they are excellent. The Stratford-on-Avon group comprises seventeen pictures; there are four exterior, and as many interior, views of the church, the latter showing the Shakspere monument; the House of the Poet is represented in two other pictures, and another pair are devoted to Ann Hathaway’s Cottage; the remaining pictures are views of the Room in which Shakspere was born, the Grammar School, the Guild Chapel, with the vestiges that yet remain of Now Place, the High Street and Town Hall, and the Old Bridge. The other groups— , kindred groups they may be styled—which Mr. Bedford has included in his series, consist of twenty-seven views of Kenilworth Castle, with five others of the Church, and of other points of especial interest in the immediate neighbourhood of the famed castle; thirty-seven views of Warwick Castle, and fifteen others in Warwick, which include the Monuments of the Beauchamp Chapel and St. Mary’s Church; twenty-one views of Guy’s Cliff; twenty-five views of Coventry; six of Charlecote; ten of Stoneleigh Abbey; twenty-seven of Leamington; fifty of Cheltenham; and six of Tewkesbury Abbey—in all 247 stereoscopic pictures, which are published by Messrs. Catherall and Prichard, of Chester, and may be obtained of the London Stereoscopic Company, and of other eminent dealers in photographs in London.
