John Thomson
1868-1872
Two women standing near an incense-burner[?]

Contact print from glass negative
Wellcome Collection
Wellcome Library, London (L0056171)
 
The same as Thomson's negative number 711a, probably one half of a stereo pair.
 
This is one of a collection of same-size contact prints made, in 1981, from John Thomson's original negatives. The glass negatives, made between 1868 and 1872, were purchased from Thomson by Sir Henry Wellcome in 1921 and are now in the Wellcome Institute Library.
