About this image
Lacock Abbey in the village of Lacock, Wiltshire, England, was founded in the early 13th century by Ela, Countess of Salisbury, as a nunnery of the Augustinian order.
The abbey remained a nunnery until the suppression of Roman Catholic institutions in England in the 16th century; it was then sold to Sir William Sharington who converted the convent into a residence where he and his family lived. The house later passed into the hands of the Talbot family, and during the 19th century was the residence of William Henry Fox Talbot. In 1835 he made what may be the earliest surviving photographic camera negative, an image of one of the windows.

What my clients say
Very pleased with my order. Everything was as advertised and my order arrived faster than expected. I would highly recommend this.
We purchased two wonderful photos from Adam. One a framed black and white of The Bean in Chicago. And, the other of an iconic road in Door County on metal. The process was painless and Adam checked in with us to make sure everything was going well. We will be looking at his work in the future for both the quality of his craftmanship and the professional way he handled the purchase and shipping of our purchase.
I ordered the materials for my project here, and everything went smoothly. Very professional. Good prices and better materials. ✅👏🏼
