Rubellin Alphonse
Saddled camel with calf and owner
<p>Albumen print with oval corners 17.2 x 20.0cm pasted on original album leaf titled in ink in a contemporary hand <em>Smyrna Turkey in Asia</em> preserved in an acid free mount.</p><p>The bearded and turbaned trader stands in front of his camel with its calf behind in a cobbled and flag stoned street beside a building with five columns at the side with shuttered windows. In the background can be seen the rear of another camel and beyond an archway.</p><p>Smyrna was one of the most important harbour settlements of Western Anatolia - the largest city of Asiatic Turkey and her greatest trade centre and the second largest city of Turkey. The most mentioned issue by visitors are the camels that pass the lanes and narrow streets while carrying loads Schubert wrote <em>"When two camels came across in lanes the one carrying less valuable load would sit down on its knees and the other one would jump over it. At this time people on the streets would have to shelter in shops."</em></p><p>Maison Rubellin had a studio in Smyrna at <em>120 rue Franque</em> from the 1870’s where they advertised themselves as <em>Photographie Parisienne</em>. They produced some fine views of the entire area around Smyrna.another speciality was <em>Types et Costumes de l’Asie Mineure.</em></p><p><em>"A photographer most likely of French origin established his studio in Smyrna Izmir Turkey in 1860 advertising his business as Photographie Parisienne. Rubellin specialized in views of Smyrna and surrounding areas focusing on ancient ruins. The firm also produced studio portaits portrayed the types and costumes of Asia Minor and photographed Istanbul and Athens. When at least one of Rubellins sons joined the studio it became known as Rubellin père et fils becoming Rubellin fils in 1900".</em> Getty Research Institute</p> Rubellin

Working without a film crew so that she could better immerse herself in the life of the town Lockhart has created a formally concise yet exceptionally intimate view of contemporary rural life that focuses on the interactions of the community's children who engage in everyday activities in stunningly beautiful natural landscapes.

On the rear is written: "Our Transit of Venus Expedition / 1874 / No. 2 / Swatara / U. S. Man of War / Lying off Cape Town." On Monday June 8 1874 the U.S. steamer Swatara under Comdr. Ralph Chandler U.S. Navy sailed from New York Harbor - her destination the remote sub-Antarctic Crozet and Kerguelen Islands Tasmania New Zealand and the Chatham Islands. Three years previously in 1871 a committee that had been established under the authorization of the U.S. Congress had completed earlier plans whereby a series of astronomical observatories would be established in various parts of the world during 1874 to conduct scientific observations on the transit of Venus scheduled to take place during December 9th of that year. In addition to the five scientific parties which the U.S. Government planned to send into southern waters three stations were scheduled for the Northern Hemisphere; at Nagasaki Peking and Vladivostok. The Swatara with its complement of 26 astronomers and photographers comprising the Southern Hemisphere contingent of the Transit of Venus Expedition along with stores instruments and equipment for establishing five observatories set sail from New York for the 46� south latitude. The first call was at Bahia Salvador Brazil on Friday July 10 from which the vessel proceeded to Cape Town where she arrived at Table Bay on Wednesday August 5th. From here on August 17th she rounded the Cape of Good Hope heading for the Crozet Islands where the first observation party was to be landed. However the high winds and heavy seas that were encountered on August 31st when the islands were reached precluded a landing so the Swatara continued on her easterly course towards the Kerguelen group the site selected for the next observatory. Three Island Harbor was reached on Monday September 7th. A camp was established at the northern end of Royal Sound and the scientific party landed equipped for a long stay both to carry out the astronomical observations and to conduct additional biotic studies of the island. On September 13th the Swatara departed and headed for Hobart Tasmania where the next observatory was due to be sited. At Hobart on October 3d equipment and stores were unloaded for establishing this station and the instruments and personnel of the Crozet party were landed so that an additional observatory might be established at Campbelltown. Bluff Harbor Southland New Zealand was reached on Friday October 16th and the New Zealand party under Prof. C. H. F. Peters was met by Lieut. E. H. Bass assistant astronomer to the New Zealand party who had spent 2 weeks in the country selecting the most suitable site for the Transit observatory. The Swatara sailed from Bluff Harbor on Saturday October 17th and after a brief stop off the Tairua Heads at the entrance to Port Chalmers headed for the Chatham Islands. Chatham Island was reached on Monday October 19th and the final party of nine under Edwin Smith the chief astronomer disembarked at Port Hutt northwest shore of Petre Bay where a station was established on rising ground to the west of Whangaroa Bay. The Swatara sailed from Petre Bay on Monday October 26th for New Zealand then to Hobart where she remained until after the Transit. <br/> <br/> unknown
