The
1856 Exhibition included a wide range of works of Art. This
extract from the catalogue shows a couple of photographic exhibits
sandwiched between other exhibits. Incidentally,
the non-photographic item 98 was exhibited by AA Wellwood
Maconochie. He may, in fact, be the same person as the PSS
Member Alan Maconochie Wellwood who contributed a special Award
under his own name, to the 1860 PSS Exhibition.
