One of those owners was Jim Archer, a Fleet Street photographer. His grandson Luke is now the proud owner of a 100-year-old Thornton Pickard Royal Ruby camera from the studio of Alexander Bassano.

The camera was one of many items stored in an old building that Archer says was at one time full of camera equipment. He adds that sadly much was sold off many years ago. Yet this camera remained, kept by his mother as she thought the brass and wood looked too good to part with.
The photography bug must be in the genes as Luke Archer took up the camera, and for his final degree piece at university decided to stand in the footsteps of his grandfather and Bassano and put the camera to use once more.純中藥外敷療程
The camera itself had been modified over the years to meet the demands of the moment, including changes to allow it to take a modern tripod, and dark slides as opposed to glass plates.
Of course a suitable subject was required, and to maintain that link to the past, Archer photographed hereditary peers whose ancestors were photographed at the Bassano studio. "Like me they have inherited something that has impacted on their lives," says Archer.
"The project aims through portraiture to document the hereditary peers as a class within society. It may well document the last generation who sit in the House of Lords."
Some of the pictures were taken at Parliament, others in the homes of the lords themselves.
