professional photographer, exhibited 'Specimens of Art. Launceston, V.D.L.’ at the 1866 Melbourne Intercolonial Exhibition. They were presumably taken on a visit to Tasmania, Nicholson’s normal address being 8 Elizabeth Street, Melbourne. He was possibly also the Nicholson in partnership with Wells in 1858 as 'daguerrean and photographic artists’ of 37 Swanston Street, Melbourne. His 'Specimens of Art’ were certainly photographs, most probably overpainted.
