A beautiful illustrated history of photography from the first black and white images to celebrated examples of 21st-century digital photography.
This lavish coffee-table book traces the history of photography from the first black and white images to celebrated examples of 21st-century digital photography.
Photography celebrates the most iconic photographs of the past 200 years and includes more than 50 biographies of the most famous photographers, explaining how they pushed the bounds of the medium. It also showcases examples of the extraordinary cameras that photographers experimented with, from the daguerreotype to the latest camera phones.
