Jean Laurent, (French, 1816-1886) was a French photographer who worked mostly in Spain. He photographed architecture and landscape scenes throughout Spain, and sold the images separately, so that it is likely that our album was created for the buyer from images he had chosen. Laurent was the official photographer to the Queen of Spain and to the Prado Museum. Samuel Mather (American 1851-1931) was an Industrialist and philanthropist who was descended from Cotton Mather and Increase Mather, and who became the wealthiest man in Cleveland Ohio.
