Vernon & Co Photographic Studios operated from various addresses in Esplanade Row Bombay from early 1900s until at least the 1920s. By 1920 the studios had also embraced the world of film - a similar progression to the celebrated Clifton & Co studios - which also operated at that time in the Bombay area. [1]
The studio produced many photographs and photographic albums which record portraits and events relating to the local Indian Royal families. For an example see Album depicting Coronation of Maharana Shri Vijayasinhji 1915 - Googlebooks
Personnel
- Arthur Cecil Cole (1874-1948) was director/manager of Vernon & Co from at least 1909 until at least 1920s. [2]
- Pranshakar and Manishankar Joshi - two brothers who had been apprenticed in Vernon Studios, Bombay, for about five years before moving to Jyoti studio and finally opening the Joshi studios in Rajkot (1911) - where, like Vernon & Co, they became photographers for many princely states. [5]
