介绍（中）	卡梅隆长期以来一直希望拍摄这位才华横溢但富有争议的历史学家和哲学家托马斯·卡莱尔（Thomas Carlyle，1795–1881），并最终将她的相机带到了伦敦。"当我的相机前有这样的人时，"她写道，"我的整个灵魂都在努力为他们尽自己的责任，记录内心的伟大和外部人的特征。"。这样拍摄的照片几乎是祈祷的化身。"卡梅伦在赫歇尔的版画上刻下了这幅有力的图像："卡莱尔就像米开朗基罗雕塑的一块粗糙的木块。"另一方面，卡莱尔给卡梅伦写下了这件事："可怕的丑陋和悲哀会发生，但有一些相似之处：我的坦率观点。" 在1875年卡梅伦和她的丈夫搬到锡兰之前，她与伦敦的Autotype公司签订了合同，为她最具标志性的70张照片制作复制底片（许多原始底片已变质），并将照片中的正面照片以更持久的碳印工艺向公众出售。这张照片就是一个这样的例子，属于阿尔弗雷德·斯蒂格利茨，他发现卡梅隆的作品与他自己关于艺术摄影的想法是一致的。1913年，他在他的豪华杂志《相机工作》上发表了这张照片和其他照片。
介绍（英）	Cameron long wished to photograph the brilliant but controversial historian and philosopher Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881) and ultimately took her camera to London to do so. “When I have had such men before my camera,” she wrote, “my whole soul has endeavored to do its duty towards them in recording the greatness of the inner as well as the features of the outer man. The photograph thus taken has been almost the embodiment of a prayer.” Cameron inscribed Herschel’s print of this powerful image: “Carlyle like a rough block of Michelangelo’s sculpture.” Carlyle, on the other hand, wrote of it to Cameron: “Terrifically ugly and woe-begone, but has something of likeness: my candid opinion.” Before Cameron and her husband moved to Ceylon in 1875, she contracted with the Autotype Company in London to produce copy negatives of seventy of her most iconic images (many original negatives having deteriorated) and to publish positives from them for sale to the public in the more permanent process of carbon printing. This print, one such example, belonged to Alfred Stieglitz, who found Cameron’s work to be in harmony with his own ideas about artistic photography. He published this image and others in his luxurious journal Camera Work in 1913.
