Julia Margaret Cameron at The Metropolitan Museum of Art
A pioneer of photography as a fine art form, Julia Margaret Cameron (1815–1879) was known for spiritual, soulful portraits of subjects who, like the artist herself, came from Engalnd’s Victorian upper class. These include such artists, poets and thinkers  as Alfred, Lord Tennyson and Thomas Carlyle. This exhibition is the first New York museum show dedicated to Cameron in nearly a generation, and is drawn entirely  from the Met’s collection. Mon 19–Jan 5

Top five shows: Aug 15–21, 2013

The best of the week in art.
