© Thomas Annan, 1868, High Street from College Open (Plate 3) Thomas Annan (1829–1887) started off as a commercial photographer, producing cartes-de-visite, landscapes and stereoscopic views. Later, along with his sons John and James Craig Annan, he became famous for his fine art reproductions and his photography documenting the architecture of Glasgow: both its slums before clearance and its elegant houses.In the late 1860s Annan received a commission from the city authorities of Glasgow to photograph the city centre, which would result in a series of remarkable photographs, later published as ‘The Old Closes and Streets of Glasgow’.
