Other familiar figures include politicians William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli, and influential thinkers Ruskin, Carlyle and Darwin. Literary greats Tennyson, Dickens and George Eliot are also captured, as is actress Ellen Terry.
The artist GF Watts is also shown, and a section is devoted to artists' models.
The remarkable selection is drawn from an enormous collection amassed by late expert on Victorian painting, Jeremy Mass. It was recently acquired by Rob Dickins CBE, Chairman of Warner Music UK from 1983-1998. Dickins presented the collection to the Watts Gallery.
