Richard Cockle Lucas
n.d.
A Necromancer, from Studies of Expression
George Eastman Museum
Following the lead of British artist and sculptor R. C. Lucas (1800-1883) who made a series of role-playing self-portraits, Rejlander used himself to catalog human emotional responses before the camera in Studies of Expression (1865). These became well-known when they appeared as illustrations in Charles Darwin's The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals (1872). Rejlander also made children's portraits, attracting the notice of Lewis Carroll and Julia Margaret Cameron.
