Robert Browning (from life), May 1865. Photogravure printed by H.H.H. Cameron and his partner J.C. Smith from negatives by Julia Margaret Cameron for the publication "Alfred, Lord Tennyson And His Friends". Tennyson first met British poet and playwright Robert Browning (1812-1889) in 1841 at a breakfast given by Richard Monckton Milnes. In April 1846, they met again when Browning described him as 'a LONG, lazy kind of man, at least just after dinner...yet there is something "naif" about him, too... the genius you see, too.' They became closer friends after another meeting in Paris in 1851, particularly so in the case of Emily Tennyson and Elizabeth Browning. Each had married late, had lost a child and both suffered ill-health. Thereafter they were to correspond regularly. From "A Series of 25 Portraits and Frontispiece In Photogravure From The Negatives Of Mrs. Julia Margaret Cameron And H.H.H. Cameron Reminiscences By Anne Thackeray Ritchie With Introduction By H.H. Hay Cameron" - [London: 1893]
