介绍（中）	约翰·赫歇尔爵士（1792-1871）是维多利亚时代英格兰杰出的科学家、天文学家和数学家，被认为与艾萨克·牛顿爵士不相上下。1836年，卡梅伦在南非开普敦遇到了他，当时她正在那里养病，他正在绘制南半球的星星图，并记录当地的植物群。就在几年后，赫歇尔在加尔各答写信给她，告诉她亨利·塔尔博特发明了摄影术，并向她发送了她所见过的第一张科学发现的照片，这些照片"让饥饿的人感到口渴"，她回忆道。在谈到1867年赫歇尔的肖像时，她写道："从我最早的少女时代起，我就爱他，尊敬他，正是在经历了31年的友谊之后，我才肩负起将他的肖像献给国家的重任。"，经济利益的偶然希望。在卡梅伦1867年4月的四次曝光中，赫歇尔更喜欢这一次，他认为这一次把他描绘成了一个"老Paterfamilias"
介绍（英）	Sir John Herschel (1792–1871) was Victorian England’s preeminent scientist, astronomer, and mathematician, considered the equal of Sir Isaac Newton. Cameron met him in 1836 in Capetown, South Africa, where she was recuperating from illness and he was charting the stars of the southern hemisphere and recording the native flora. Just a few years later Herschel wrote to her in Calcutta of Henry Talbot’s invention of photography and sent her the first photographs she had ever seen—scientific discoveries that were “water to the parched lips of the starved,” she recalled. Of her 1867 portraits of Herschel, she wrote: “From my earliest girlhood I had loved and honoured him, and it was after a friendship of 31 years’ duration that the high task of giving his portrait to the nation was allotted to me,” sounding a bit as though she were working on a divine commission rather than on a personal, spiritual, artistic quest—with, it must be said, some incidental hope of financial profit. Of the four exposures Cameron made in April 1867, Herschel preferred this one, which portrayed him, he thought, as an “old Paterfamilias.”
