G. Jones was a photographer active in Marlborough during the early 1870s. A George Jones is recorded as a photographer in Marlborough in 1871 and 1872, and he also produced conventional studio portraits.
Jones is particularly notable for his topographical work. Seven carte-de-visite views are known, including six of Marlborough College and one of Savernake Forest. The concentration of views of the College suggests a particular association with the school, whose buildings and grounds provided an attractive subject for photographic views during the expansion of the carte-de-visite market.
Three different card backs are represented among his views, one bearing the initial G. The variation in the backs indicates that the photographs were produced over a period rather than as a single batch.
Very little is known about Jones's personal life or his photographic career beyond Marlborough. His surviving work nevertheless provides a valuable record of Marlborough College and the surrounding landscape during the early 1870s, and illustrates the way in which provincial photographers combined portrait photography with the production of local topographical views. |
