Robert Howlett was one of the first photographers to earn a successful living from this new medium. Until the 1850s virtually all photographers were amateurs who arrived at the infant art form either from the sciences or painting. Howlett associated with amateur practitioners through exhibitions of his photographs and in 1856 began to exhibit his work at the Photographic Society in London. Howlett
