has abstract	Alfred Chopin (1846 – October 1902) was a convict transported to Western Australia. He became one of the colony's first portrait photographers. Nothing is known of Alfred Chopin's early life, but on 4 December 1865 both he and his brother William were convicted in the Manchester courts and sentenced to be transported. Alfred Chopin was convicted of receiving stolen goods, and received a sentence of ten years. His brother was convicted of uttering forged notes and was sentenced to twenty years. The two brothers were transported to Western Australia on board the , which arrived at Fremantle on 13 July 1867. In February 1869, Alfred Chopin received a free pardon, having been falsely accused. He then obtained a confectioner's licence and opened a small shop in Perth. When his brother obtained his ticket of leave, Alfred employed William in his shop for a short time. In March 1872, Alfred Chopin married Ellen Mary McNamara; they would have eight children. In 1872, Chopin started a business as a photographer. "As a token of official remorse" (Erickson 1983) for his wrongful conviction and imprisonment, the governor commissioned him to take some photographs, and thereafter he advertised himself as "by appointment to His Excellency". Because of the historical significance of some of the officials that Chopin was commissioned to photograph, a number of his portraits have been preserved, including portraits of Sir Frederick Barlee, Sir Malcolm Fraser and Sir Luke Leake. During the 1870s the photography market became very competitive, and Chopin began to tour country districts in search of custom. His business declined nonetheless, and in June 1877 he was declared bankrupt. According to Erickson (1983), "many an old colonial family album of photographs is the richer for his work". In his later years, Chopin lived at Guildford, and worked as a mechanic. He died at his home in October 1902. (en) Alfred Chopin (1846 - 1902) fue un convicto transportado a Australia Occidental. Fue uno de los primeros fotógrafos de retratos en la colonia. Nada se sabe acerca de su juventud, pero en el 4 de diciembre de 1865, él y su hermano fueron condenados en los tribunales de Mánchester y sentenciados a ser transportados. Alfred Chopin fue condenado a un periodo de 10 años por recibir bienes extranjeros robados. Su hermano fue condenado a 20 años por dar notas falsas. Los dos hermanos fueron transportados a Australia Occidental en la Norwood la cual llegó a Fremantle en julio de 1867. En febrero de 1869, Alfred Chopin recibió indulto, tras la comprobación de que su acusación había sido falsa. Obtuvo después una licencia de confitero y abrió una tienda pequeña en Perth. Cuando su hermano fue liberado, fue empleado por Alfred durante un plazo corto. En marzo de 1872, Alfred Chopin se casó con ; con quien tuvo ocho hijos. En 1872, Chopin empezó un negocio como fotógrafo, siendo contratado por el gobierno en compensación de su condena y encarcelamiento equivocado. Por el significado histórico de algunos de los oficiales que fueron captados en fotos por Chopin, una cantidad de sus retratos fueron preservados, incluyendo fotos de Sir Frederick Barlee, y . Durante la década de los 70s, el mercado fotográfico se volvió muy competitivo y Chopin empezó a viajar a distritos rurales en búsqueda de clientela. Su negocio fue de mal a peor, y en junio de 1877 se declaró en bancarrota. En sus últimos años, Chopin vivió en Guilford, y trabajo como mecánico. Murió en su casa en octubre de 1902. (es)
