George Charles Beresford

George Charles Beresford (10 July 1864 – 21 February 1938) was a British studio photographer, originally from Drumlease, Dromahair, County Leitrim.

After four years he contracted malaria and returned to England to study art, eventually exhibiting at the Royal Academy.

His images were used in publications such as The World's Work, The Sketch, The Tatler and The Illustrated London News.

Beresford was a close friend of Augustus John and Sir William Orpen, another Irishman – they produced a number of images of each other.

[4] Major Henry Marcus Beresford (2 March 1835 – 5 February 1895) and Julia Ellen Maunsell (died 13 October 1923) were married on 10 April 1861.
