Magnus Jackson

Magnus Jackson (25 September 1831 – 27 April 1891) was a Scottish landscape photographer from Perth. He was noted for his use of the collodion process in developing his photographic film. He left around 2,500 glass photographic negatives taken in Perth and the surrounding area between the late 1850s and 1890. These are now on permanent display at Perth Museum and Art Gallery.

In 2017, Perth Museum and Art Gallery exhibited Jackson's work over four months. The exhibition featured a projected silhouette of Jackson describing, in his own words, the challenge of using wet-plate collodion photography.
