"In his lifetime he produced over a million hand-tinted platinum prints of an idealised country life and its buildings’ interiors. Nutting was so successful at one point, that he was employing over a hundred people to assist him in his work. ... Aside from his books, Nutting established five profit making museums in which to house his photographs and examples of American furniture." [1]
