"Exploring the Global Journey of Albumen: From Harbour to Castle, and Beyond" Step into a captivating journey through time as we delve into the diverse world of albumen. From the picturesque harbour of Newcastle, New South Wales in Australia to the majestic Bridge on the River Tamar in Conwy Castle, Wales - this photographic technique has left its mark across continents. Transporting us back to c. 1880s Southeast Asia, we witness a glimpse of life in Philippines where girls and women radiate beauty captured by albumen prints. Moving forward, we find ourselves amidst the chaos of World War II with John Laverick's SBS capturing Operation Albumen on Crete. The versatility takes us further south to South Africa, where an ox-drawn wagon train braves river crossings. Meanwhile, at Palace Hotel in San Francisco, California - memories frozen in time await our exploration. Traveling eastward brings us to Shanghai's bustling Bund during the early 20th century; traffic and boats harmoniously coexist against a vintage backdrop. Our next stop is Meenakshi Temple in Madurai, India - an architectural marvel that stands tall even through albumen prints. As we approach Japan during c. 1880s, a young woman engrossed in her reflection while putting on makeup reveals timeless elegance preserved by this technique. Lastly but not leastly from India emerges images showcasing both royalty and culture - from the Amir of Kabul Afghanistan during 1860s to a child prince surrounded by his officials.
