Okamura, Hannah Maynard, and S.A. Spencer. Photographs created after 1880 tend to be the products of amateur or street photographers, and as a result, individuals depicted therein are in informal attire. Most of the individuals depicted in the photographs are not identified. The predominant focus of the series is on representations of white settler society—particularly children--though photographs of Indigenous persons and persons of colour are included as well. There are also several photograph of Chinese Canadians in Victoria and Vancouver.
