The Victoria and Albert Museum are currently holding a photography exhibition of British photographer Captain Linnaeus Tripe, capturing 60 of his most striking images of India and Burma. The photographs were taken between 1852- 1860 and consist of Indian and Burmese landscape and architecture.

Rarely seen in the West, Tripe brings to light documentation covering archeological sites, monuments and an eye for creative photography.

The exhibition runs until October the 11th 2015. For more information about the exhibition, times and tickets, please click here: http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/exhibitions/captain-linneaus-tripe-photographer-of-india-and-burma-1852-1860/about-the-exhibition/
