Elizabeth Eastlake was the wife of Sir Charles Eastlake, President of the Royal Academy, and the first President of the Royal Photographic Society.
Keenly interested in photography, and in its relationship with art, in April 1857 she published an interesting account of the first few years of the history of photography in the London Quarterly Review. At the time of writing, the article was available on-line: See article by Elizabeth Eastlake.
