The Visitors

By: Cory, Charlotte

Charlotte Cory reworks the photographic visiting cards that were a Victorian craze, with a new twist. Instead of forgotten faces and family pets - dressed for their best and preserved for a posterity that is no longer interested - her visitors' are creatures of fantasy and fascination: a noble tiger in full military regalia, a dejected donkey in a sparse studio setting and a haughty kangaroo holding a cricket bat and gazing out at us dismissively. A remarkable book that draws readers into an imagined world of immense power and originality.'
