Photographs

The photographic archive

The photographic holdings of St Joseph's Province fall into three broad collections: individual portraits of members of the Province; group photographs of the community taken from the 1860s through to the early 1960s, preserved in seven albums; and images of St Gabriel's Retreat, Highgate — the Province's principal London house — showing its church, buildings, and parish life.

All photographs are displayed using the IIIF standard and can be browsed in the viewer. Click View on any collection to open it. Each canvas is labelled with the subject's name (for portraits) or a descriptive title.
