John Beauchamp

  • Artist (Photographer)
A professional photographer who worked with William Davies in Sydney before being brought to court in 1868 for possessing obscene prints and photographic negatives of 'an extremely disgusting character.' There is speculation that this is the same J. Beauchamp who 10 years later was working with William Bardell in Victoria - far from the scene of his original misdemeanours.
