Product Description
Conceived as an introspective journey that takes you from the
first daguerreotypes to war photojournalism, from fashion spreads
to the greatest contemporary artists, The Adventure of
Photography: 150 Years of the Photographic Image includes 1700
pictures and 300 artists, and will appeal to all
photographers--amateur and professional alike. This is not only
the history of an amazing art form, it is also the adventure of
one century and half during which photography has captured the
image of the collective conscience. This trip is as dazzling as it
is moving, where one crosses paths with such celebrated
photographers as Ansel Adams, Brassai, Lewis Carroll, Robert
Doisneau, George Eastman-Kodak, Max Ernst, Roger Fenton, Eadweard
Muybridge, Helmut Newton, Nicephore Niepce, Man Ray, Edward J.
Steichen, Alfred Stieglitz, Andy Warhol and many more.
