Cassiopeia, 1866. Creator: Julia Margaret Cameron
Cassiopeia, 1866. The model for " Cassiopeia" and " The Mountain Nymph, Sweet Liberty" was identified by Cameron only as " Mrs. Keene" and this appears to be one of just two instances in which Cameron used a professional model rather than friends, family, neighbours, and household staff

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph captured by the talented Julia Margaret Cameron. This mesmerizing image showcases a mysterious female figure identified only as "Mrs. Keene" who served as a professional model for Cameron - an unusual departure from her usual practice of using friends, family, neighbors, and household staff. The photograph belongs to the artistic school of the 19th century and reflects Cameron's unique artistic style. With its soft focus and sepia tones, it exudes an ethereal quality that transports viewers back in time. In this particular piece, Mrs. Keene embodies Cassiopeia, a Greek goddess known for her beauty and regal presence. The connection to Greek mythology adds depth to the portrait while highlighting Cameron's fascination with classical themes. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are reminded of Victorian England's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to both Cameron's technical prowess as a photographer and her ability to capture the essence of femininity in all its grace and power. This print invites us into another era where religion intertwines with artistry, inviting contemplation on themes such as divinity and spirituality. Through her lens, Julia Margaret Cameron immortalizes Mrs. Keene as she channels the mythical allure of Cassiopeia – forever preserving her beauty within this work of art.
