Veins of Influence, Colonial Sri Lanka (Ceylon) in Early Photographs and Collections is a groundbreaking publication that brings early images of Sri Lanka (Ceylon) into the global discourse of photography and visual appreciation. In these pages, Ganendra surveys more than 450 early photographs of colonial Sri Lanka, from important collections, most of which have never been published or otherwise come into the public view, until now. Her focus on the collecting dynamic provides novel perspectives that humanise the image through the nature of their collectors and their related journeys.  Images featured are from a variety of private and public collections including the: Royal Collection Trust; Pitt Rivers Museum, University of Oxford; Royal Commonwealth Society, Cambridge University Library; Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland; Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; Rothschild Foundation. In addition to these UK collections, the publication includes early photographs from important local family collections and period publications.
