The American daguerreotype

Más información sobre el libro

The American daguerreotype represents the culmination of more than twenty years of painstaking research by Floyd and Marion Rinhart. This single volume is a historical survey of the daguerreian art that flourished between 1840 and 1860, technical details of the daguerreotype processes including color, a discussion of the impact of the earliest photography on nineteenth-century American life and art, and a biographical listing of some 2,000 daguerreotypists and other related to the art-by far the most comprehensive list of its kind ever published.-- Source inconnue
