Alexandra Kitchin
Alexandra "Xie" Rhoda Kitchin (1864-1925) was the favorite photographic subject of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, who photographed her around fifty times, from the age of four until around age 14. She was also a notable child-friend of Dodgson. The works they made together are commonly known to collectors, curators, and contemporary artists who are inspired by them, as the "Xie" (pronounced 'Ecksy') pictures. She was the daughter of Rev. George William Kitchin (1827-1912), Dean of Winchester and later the Dean of Durham cathederal.
