Work Of Innovative Photographer On Display

June 13, 2025

The Morgan Library & Museum presents Arresting Beauty: Julia Margaret Cameron, a major exhibition exploring the revolutionary work of one of photographys most pioneering and influential figures. Opened May 30, the exhibit runs through Sept. 14, bringing together a remarkable selection of Camerons evocative portraits and staged compositions, offering a rare glimpse into the artistic vision of a woman who transformed photography into an expressive art form in the 19th century. Organized by the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), London, the exhibition features works drawn from the V&As extensive holdings of nearly one thousand of Camerons photographs, which comprise the largest and most comprehensive collection of her work in the world. Arresting Beauty includes an array of Camerons most striking works, including her celebrated portraits of preeminent Victorians, allegorical tableaux, and a selection of her subjects inspired by literature and biblical themes. Also on view are pages from Camerons unfinished memoir, Annals of My Glass House. To contact the Morgan Library & Museum in New York City, call 212-685-0008.
