Francis Frith was an english photographer, that worked in the Middle East and in some areas in the United Kingdom. He traveled taking photographs with the intentions of understanding the world from different points of view. Before he was able to embark on his journeys, he attended a quaker school and opened a cutlery business. When he left to satisfy his interest in photography, he founded the Liverpool Photographic Society. With the support of this group, and his new wife, Frith created "Francis Frith & Co." This company traveled the world and helped Frith photograph every town in the United Kingdom. He used his photographs to make postcards.
