[Dave Monroe]

The Tibet Album presents more than 6000 photographs spanning 30 years
of Tibet's history. These extraordinary photographs are a unique
record of people long gone and places changed beyond all recognition.
They also document the ways that British visitors encountered Tibet
and Tibetans.

Featuring photographs taken by Charles Bell, Arthur Hopkinson, Evan
Nepean, Hugh Richardson, Frederick Spencer Chapman, Harry Staunton and
the previously unidentified photographs of Rabden Lepcha.

Our specially designed functions (maps, zoom, album…) enable you to
browse this site in many different ways. Photographs appear in a
variety of formats and can be linked to the visual narratives they
were originally used for....
