VSW is hosting The Photographic Historical Society Meeting featuring a presentation by Virginia Dodier titled Outside/In: Clementina Hawarden's Domestic Portraits.

Art photographer or portrait photographer—or both? Clementina Hawarden (1822-1865) won awards for artistic costume tableaux of her daughters. Using images selected from the 775 Hawarden photographs in the Victoria and Albert Museum collection, Virginia Dodier will discuss how Hawarden's photographic style evolved while her family remained the focus of her life and work.
