Though using different materials and methods (the salted paper print was patented, while daguerreotype was not) still both achieved the miracle of fixing an image from life within a substrate - in other words, they ushered in the medium of photography. This volume offers new views on the use and employment of the salted paper print in North America. The hope is that this publication will encourage investigation, for the history of photography has many areas of terra icognita yet to discover." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction: the North American salted paper print, by Keith F.

Hardback. Condizione: New. The salted paper print process and the daguerreotype were invented, for all practical purposes, simultaneously. Though using different materials and methods (the salted paper print was patented, while daguerreotype was not) still both achieved the miracle of fixing an image from life within a substrate-in other words, they ushered in the medium of photography. The uses of each form of photography varied greatly. In Europe the salted paper print was valued for its aesthetic qualities?the massing of light and the softening of detail-while in North America, the salted paper print was valued for its portability and reproducibility. At the same time, the three evolving regions that comprised North America-Canada, the United States and Mexico-faced quite different realities and challenges than those in Europe (primarily France and Britain). In North America artistic merit was less of a priority, as each emerging nation faced vast, untamed territories, as well as social and political tumult. These were countries in the making-defining borders, struggling to create identities, and establishing metropolitan areas and transportation networks, while the scions on the other side of the Atlantic cast a leisurely eye to their artistic, architectural, and colonial heritage for subject matter. Scant research has been done on the use of the salted paper print in North America during its brief period of use (approximately 1847-1865); physical prints are often found in obscure collections and locations, and they are, as is true for most works on paper from that period, exceedingly fragile. This volume, with essays by three up and coming 19th-century scholars, offers new views on the use and employment of the salted paper print in North America. The hope is that this publication will encourage investigation, for the history of photography has many areas of terra incognita yet to discover.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Robert Franks and Todd Webbs parallel 1955 projects to photograph America are considered in the context of mid-twentieth-century American culture In 1955 two photographers were awarded grants from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation to embark on trips across the United States. Robert Frank (19242019) drove coast to coast, photographing the highways, bars, and people that formed the basis for his widely admired publication The Americans (1958). Todd Webb (19052000) walked across the country, searching for vanishing Americana and what is taking its place. Unaware of each others work, the photographers produced strikingly similar images of the highway, parades, and dim, smoky barrooms. Yet while Franks grainy, off-kilter style revealed many inequities of American life, Webbs carefully composed images embraced clear detail and celebrated the individual oddities of Americans and their locales. This revelatory book is the first to publish Webbs 1955 photographs and connects these parallel projects for the first time. More than one hundred images accompany text illuminating Franks and Webbs different perspectives and approaches to similar subjects and places; the difference in reception of Franks iconic work and Webbs relatively unknown series; and the place of the road trip in shaping American identity at midcentury.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Robert Frank's and Todd Webb's parallel 1955 projects to photograph America are considered in the context of mid-twentieth-century American culture   In 1955 two photographers were awarded grants from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation to embark on trips across the United States. Robert Frank (1924-2019) drove coast to coast, photographing the highways, bars, and people that formed the basis for his widely admired publication The Americans (1958). Todd Webb (1905-2000) walked across the country, searching for "vanishing Americana and what is taking its place."   Unaware of each other's work, the photographers produced strikingly similar images of the highway, parades, and dim, smoky barrooms. Yet while Frank's grainy, off-kilter style revealed many inequities of American life, Webb's carefully composed images embraced clear detail and celebrated the individual oddities of Americans and their locales.   This revelatory book is the first to publish Webb's 1955 photographs and connects these parallel projects for the first time. More than one hundred images accompany text illuminating Frank's and Webb's different perspectives and approaches to similar subjects and places; the difference in reception of Frank's iconic work and Webb's relatively unknown series; and the place of the road trip in shaping American identity at midcentury.   Published in association with the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston  Exhibition Schedule:  Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (October 8, 2023-January 7, 2024)    Addison Gallery of American Art, Phillips Academy, Andover, Massachusetts (February 10-July 30, 2024)    Brandywine Museum of Art, Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania (February 8-May 4, 2025).
