I've only seen Claddagh rings but it looks like it could be Celtic knots woven together? So glad you enjoyed these photographs. I always love sharing what I find but knowing so many other friends enjoy them as well, couldn't be better! Thanks for stopping by and staying a while!

What a joy that was. I didn't want to leave that room as you can imagine! Oh Tennyson's Idylls of the King with Cameron's own handwriting = perfection! Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting. I enjoy your blog very much. <br /><br />Hi Jeanne,<br />I'm so glad you enjoyed the photographs and thanks so much for sharing and leaving a comment. I really appreciate it!

What a shame. For photos that were captured from the mid century on, they were amazing.<br /><br />I suppose this is not too surprising. From 1874 on the Isle of Wight, it was with Tennyson’s encouragement that Cameron published her own work with albumen silver prints interspersed with texts by Tennyson, lithographed from Cameron’s hand-writing. One volume appeared in Jan 1875 and the second in May, selling well. Both frontispieces had a portrait of Tennyson.<br /><br />Thanks for the excellent link<br />Hels<br />http://melbourneblogger.blogspot.com.au/2009/10/julia-cameron-lord-tennyson-and-isle-of.htmlHelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
