A beautiful volume of masterpieces from nineteenth-century duo David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson, one of the most famous partnerships in history. Pioneering Edinburgh photographers David Octavius Hill (18021870) and Robert Adamson (18211848) together formed one of the most famous partnerships in the history of photography. Producing highly skilled photographs just four years after the new medium was announced to the world in 1839, their images of people, buildings and scenes in and around Edinburgh offer a fascinating glimpse into 1840s Scotland.
