Daisy 1864

"Daisy", taken in 1864, is a portrait by the renowned photographer Julia Margaret Cameron. Known for her close-up portraits with a soft focus, Cameron captured the innocence and vulnerability of her subjects. This photograph, with its hazy background and the child's pensive expression, showcases Cameron's signature style, placing her at the forefront of the Pictorialist movement in photography. The intimate portrayal of the young girl, perhaps a member of the Cameron family, is a testament to Cameron's artistic vision and her ability to evoke emotion through her work.
