A unique portrait of nineteenth-century Italy as seen through the eyes of the first generation of British photographers
This book examines the ways in which the new medium of photography influenced the British experience, appreciation, and perception of Italy in the nineteenth century. Setting photography within a long history of image making―beginning with the eighteenth-century Grand Tour and transformed by the inventions of William Henry Fox Talbot and Louis Daguerre―this beautifully illustrated book features many previously unpublished images alongside the work of well-known photographers. The sixteen essays in this volume explore photography as a vehicle for visual translation and cultural exchange.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. A unique portrait of nineteenth-century Italy as seen through the eyes of the first generation of British photographers This book examines the ways in which the new medium of photography influenced the British exploration, appreciation, and perception of Italy in the mid-nineteenth century. Sixteen scholarly essays address topics such as the origins of photography; the rise in popularity of cartes de visite, illustrated novels, and tourist albums; and images of regional types and heroes of the Risorgimento. Extensive plates, reproduced at full size and including many previously unpublished images, feature the work of artists including Robert Macpherson, Calvert Richard Jones, Julia Margaret Cameron, and Agnes and Dora Bulwer. Situating these photographic works within a longer history of image-making that begins with drawings and paintings from the eighteenth-century Grand Tour, through the photographic inventions of William Henry Fox Talbot and Louis Daguerre, and extending into twentieth-century artistic practices, this study considers photography as a vehicle of cultural exchange and visual translation.
