| Author | There is no person credited for images contained the the work. The introduction thanks the Clarendon Press for the production of these en:collotypes. The British Library Catalogue record for this work does not specify any photographer either, and the image is believed to be anonymous under UK law, and old enough to be in the public domain on that basis. Publication was in 1899, and accordingly the image is also public domain under US law. |
