Biografie
Robert W. Reford was the heir to the Reford shipping and navigation business. In 1889 he journeyed from Montreal to British Columbia in order to assist with his family’s business there. He stayed in the province until 1891. Though centered in Victoria, Reford made several trips along the coast of British Columbia, into the interior and in to the Arctic. Reford was an amateur photographer and while in British Columbia he took a large number of photos, both of his acquaintances and of the local scenery and inhabitants.
Geschiedenis beheer
The two albums of photographs from which these scanned images were created were in the custody of a private family, who had custody of the albums for many years. In 2005 the albums, which were composed of original first generation prints, were brought to MOA for copies to be made for the archives. The albums were than transferred to a family member in Toronto.
Bereik en inhoud
Fonds contains scanned images from two photo albums attributed to Robert Reford. One album shows images from his time in British Columbia (1889-1891). These photographs were likely taken by Reford. The second album contains images from the Arctic. It is not clear who took these photos, as there is no record of Reford having spent time in the Arctic.
