This thesis will explore the production of photographicalbums by Lady Annie Brassey (1839-1887), a traveller,collector and writer famed for her circumnavigationalvoyages. Continuing research undertaken as part of my MAArt History studies, I will focus on Brassey's contribution tophotographic practices in the 19th century, particularly thecollecting, arrangement and display of photographs withinalbums; deemed a feminine pastime, this mode of artisticproduction has been widely overlooked in terms ofscholarship, with academics such as Patrizia di Bello havingrecently opened up this area of study. A Sussex resident,Brassey's core collections of artefacts largely occupyHastings & Bexhill Museums. This project will focus on thesignificant body of photographic material that remains inSussex at Hastings Library and The Keep Archives, whereasmany of her albums are now kept in the US. Further to ourunderstanding of one female figure, this thesis willcontribute to our knowledge of photography within thenineteenth century, revealing networks of exchange andcollaboration, and broadening the myopic canon ofphotographic history.

这篇论文将探讨安妮·布拉西夫人(1839-1887)的摄影集创作，她是一位以环球航行而闻名的旅行家、收藏家和作家。作为我的Maart历史研究的一部分，我将继续研究Brassey在19世纪对摄影实践的贡献，特别是收集、整理和展示相册中的照片；这种被认为是女性消遣的艺术生产模式在学术方面被广泛忽视，最近Patrizia di Bello等学者开辟了这一研究领域。作为苏塞克斯的居民，布拉西的核心文物收藏主要集中在黑斯廷斯和贝克希尔博物馆。这个项目将重点放在苏塞克斯黑斯廷斯图书馆和保存档案馆的大量摄影材料上，她的许多专辑现在保存在美国。为了进一步理解一位女性人物，这篇论文将有助于我们对十九世纪摄影的认识，揭示交流与合作的网络，并拓宽摄影史上短视的经典。
