I am pleased to say that I now have less than 1,000 plate negatives left to scan for the project.
The images captured in the scans this week have been really interesting and very varied. I have seen pictures of William Wordsworth's Dove Cottage in Grasmere, of what appears to be a domesticated fox labelled on the plate sleeve as the 'Borrowdale Fox', photographs of Joseph Hardman and his wife and paintings from John Ruskin's art collection.
A number of the scanned images have now been sent to the media department at the Lakeland Arts Trust so that they can then be loaded onto the online image library.
Some of the images in the 'Joseph Hardman Archive: Series 1' have already been uploaded and can be viewed at the link below:

More images from Series 2 should be uploaded very soon so keep your eyes peeled!
