I am writing a little book about the 100 or so portraits that I have collected and from time to time, reading about women in photography, there are two trends of thought.
1. women professionals were common and it was a relatively simple and accepted thing to do. They just got disappeared in historical accounts.
2. women were isolated and unwelcome.
This was a welcome article in the Guardian
