View from the Lawn, Dennicanniby, 1870s. Creator: Vernon Heath (British, 1819-1895)
View from the Lawn, Dennicanniby, 1870s. A distinguished photographer who received royal patronage, Vernon Heath traveled extensively throughout the British Isles documenting estates and landscapes on commission. This carefully composed scenic view, taken just above the Upper Lake of Three Lakes of Killarney in southwest Ireland, exemplifies the pioneering technique he developed in the early 1860s for enlarging 12x10-inch glass negatives. Made when contact printing was the norm, Heaths carbon-printed enlargements showed no distortion and preserved the general artistic effect, which brought praise from the photographic press. Through his outstanding ability to manipulate wet collodion plates in the field, he excelled at controlling light and rendering aerial perspective. Indeed, Heath was highly acclaimed for the pictorial detail and faithful description of the picturesque scenes his Victorian audience so admired. By 1871 the carbon pigment process was his preferred method for printing. It produced a softening effect and greater gradation of tone in his photographs while rendering them impervious to fading caused by natural light

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print captured by Vernon Heath, a renowned British photographer of the 19th century. Known for his exceptional talent and royal patronage, Heath extensively traveled across the British Isles to document estates and landscapes. This particular photograph showcases Heath's pioneering technique developed in the early 1860s for enlarging glass negatives. Despite being taken during an era when contact printing was prevalent, Heath's carbon-printed enlargements displayed no distortion while preserving the overall artistic effect. This innovation earned him high praise from the photographic press. The image depicts a carefully composed scenic view just above the Upper Lake of Three Lakes of Killarney in southwest Ireland. Through his mastery of manipulating wet collodion plates on location, Heath excelled at controlling light and capturing aerial perspective with remarkable precision. His Victorian audience greatly admired his ability to faithfully describe picturesque scenes with intricate detail. By 1871, Heath had adopted carbon pigment printing as his preferred method due to its softening effect and enhanced tonal gradation. This process also ensured that his photographs remained impervious to fading caused by natural light. Heritage Art/Heritage Images has preserved this exquisite piece of artistry by Vernon Heath, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic beauty today.
