"St. Andrews. College Church of St. Salvator" is a calotype photograph taken by the Scottish duo Hill and Adamson between 1843 and 1847. This early photographic work depicts a view of the College Church of St. Salvator in St. Andrews, Scotland, capturing the architectural details of the church and the surrounding street. The calotype process, developed by William Henry Fox Talbot, allowed for the creation of detailed images on paper, contributing to the evolution of photography. Today, this photograph is part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, showcasing the early history of the medium and the exploration of architectural subjects.
