Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book is more of an historical study than a manual of techniques. It introduces photography from its early beginnings and then shows how it develops both as a threat to painting, and as an aid to painting. Major figures in both art and photography are covered and the mutual influences explained. By the end of the book the distinction between art and photography is so blurred that it is difficult to see either without acknowledging its effect on the other. An excellent book for understanding how the two media developed and effected each other, but very little on practical technique for the beginner.
