F J Mortimer was one of the pioneers of pictorial photography. Born in Portsmouth, and surrounded by the sailing life, the sea was his favorite subject . He was also known for his innovative photographic techniques, such as using multiple composite negatives using artist's pigments and oils alongside the usual photographic chemicals. As well as the sea he photographed women in various settings, many of which also incorporated water or the seaside. In addition to these celebrations of femininity in nature, his other work featuring women ranged from intimate portraits to documentary-style shots of women in the workplace.
