From the Dust Jacket: "Photography is a revolutionary art medium that has changed the way in which the world is presented. It has become an indispensable mode of communication, and a vital means of revealing and explaining the way we live. This comprehensive encyclopedia traces the amazing journey of photography, from the invention of the daguerreotype in 1829 to today's digital photograph. In outlining this innovative art form's nearly two hundred-year history, THE ABRAMS ENCYCLOPEDIA OF PHOTOGRAPHY investigates some of photography's key themes, from portraits, nudes, and still lifes, to sports and fashion photography, photojournalism, news coverage, and images from space. Photographic techniques are explained by experts, who also examine the various photographic approaches to photography employed by artists around the world. Filled with images that have changed our perceptions of reality, such as Eadweard Muybridge's famous GALLOPING HORSE, and featuring biographies of 220 of the greatest photographers of all time, THE ENCYCLOPEDIA presents the complex story of photography in a format that will appeal to all readers.". First Printing of the First US Edition. Hard Cover. As New condition/As New dust jacket. 288pp.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
