"British Columbia Gems of the Year 1883"; composite photo made from the children's portraits taken the previous year, at centre are the Gems of 1881 and 1882.

This "Gem" from photographer Hannah Maynard’s “Gems of British Columbia" series appears to have been created for 1883. The work includes child and baby portraits taken in previous years and features the portrait of a child from the pioneering Spotts family. Located beside the left flag in the centre of the work, it is likely “Cecillia Spotts”.

Several of the Spotts family children were photographed by Victoria-based Hannah Maynard of Mrs. R. Maynard's Photographic Gallery, including “Cecillia Spotts” and “Percy Spotts.” The Alexander and likely Barnswell families, also appear to have been clients of the Maynard Studio and represent other pioneering Black families of Vancouver Island and British Columbia.

Maynard, Hannah (Hatherly)

Photograph of a montage work featuring works by Richard and or Hannah Maynard.

The image depicts a photograph of a multi-image montage photographic work attributed to Hannah Maynard, part of a number of montages created in the 1880s and 1890s. It is a gelatin dry glass plate negative (10 x 12 inches). The work is composed of many photographic prints physically placed and nailed together on a support to form a single work. Some of the photographic works included are those attributed to Richard Maynard and relate to his field photographs produced during several of his photographic trips taken throughout the course of his photographic career. Some of these are works likely produced during his documentation of the Canadian Pacific Railway construction in British Columbia and Alberta in the 1880s. There are also works likely produced during his photographic trips to Alaska and the Pribilof Islands (1892) between 1870s and 1890s. There are also views of colonial settlements represented here. Some of the prints featured here in other instances appear as prints and presented in photographic albums attributed to R. Maynard. However, the works presented in this image all appear to be marketed by Hannah Maynard. There is text included on some of the prints which states the following: Mrs. R. Maynard, Artist. This negative does not appear to have been manipulated. Two tongs and a chair are visible, holding the work up to be photographed in an unknown location.
