| Narrative: | Garfield was the son of Frederick Wellington (or William) Morton and Maude Boliver. |
| History of Use: | Photographs could tell stories and provide evidence at the same time. This became the true power of photography. From the crude beginnings of a strange projector-like box named 'camera obscura' to modern-day smartphones and D-SLR cameras, photographic mediums have come a long way. If you're interested in learning how things have evolved over the years in the wonderful world of cameras, then let's take a dive into the history of photography! |
