Henry Peach Robinson, photographer, 1830-1901

"Bookseller Henry Peach Robinson taught himself photography by using the instructions written by Dr. Hugh Diamond in the 'Journal of the Photographic Society.' In 1857, he abandoned his career to open up a photographic studio that specialized in portraits. Robinson made combination prints that joined multiple negatives to form a single image."
