Photography: Essays & Images: Illustrated Readings in the History of Photography

by Beaumont Newhall (Editor)

This book is an autobiography of the art of photography, written by some of the men and women who by their inventive genius, their scientific skill, and their artistic sensibility have forged a technique into a vital visual medium. We have allowed them to speak to us directly, without condensing, excerpting, or otherwise editing their words, and retaining the original spelling and punctuation, so that the volume may be both an authentic source book for students of the history of photography as an art and a narrative for the general reader.
