Abstract
This chapter notes that the Maxwell—Sutton episode was not unique and examines two other cases of collaborations between scientists and photographers, for example, between Alfred Donné and Léon Foucault in France and between Charles Darwin and O.G. Rejlander in Britain. In the other cases also the author of the scientific text and the photographic contributor enjoyed a shared keen familiarity with pictures and picture-making The photographer also displayed a minimum of both difference and autonomy of skill and standing. In print, the collaboration was recorded with the author of the text crediting the photographic contributor with the authorship of the illustrations.
