PHOTOGRAPHY - CAMERON (JULIA MARGARET) 'Stella' [Julia Stephen, née Jackson], albumen print, signed and inscribed 'From Life. Registered Photograph Copyright Julia Margaret Cameron' and titled 'Stella' by Cameron beneath the image on original mount, faded and some spotting image [Ford and Cox 306], image 260 x 224mm., sheet 505 x 465mm., [1867] Footnotes: Julia Stephen (née Jackson) was the goddaughter of Julia Margaret Cameron. After the death of her first husband, Herbert Jackson, in 1870 she married Leslie Stephen, with whom she had four children, including Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell. Julia (1846-1895) modelled for many photographs by her godmother, as well as other artists, and was to contribute the article about Cameron in the Dictionary of National Biography (1886). Her daughter Virginia Woolf wrote of Cameron 'She used to say that in her photography a hundred negatives were destroyed before she achieved one good result; her object being to overcome realism by diminishing just in the least degree the precision of the focus' (Victorian Photographs of Famous Men & Fair Women, introduction, 1926).
