About this product
Product Information
Photography and travel have been linked since 1839, when Daguerre and Talbot first made their inventions known to the public. The inventors and their advocates immediately recognised photography's capability to vividly represent the spectacles of the world, and make them accessible to the general public in the comfort of their homes. The unquestionable connection between photography and travel remains vital today. In Photography and Travel, Graham Smith provides a lively account of this partnership, discussing the diverse applications of photography to travel during the nineteenth century, in destinations as exotic as France, Italy, Greece, Egypt, Japan and North America. He then moves to the twentieth century, ranging from seaside excursions to transcontinental travel byrail, road and air.

"It's nice to have all the pictures and Smith's book tells the extraordinary tale of the relationship between travel and the photographic arts from 1830s to the present day. He covers an impressive amount of ground: photographs stealing the show at the great exhibitions of the 19th century, the rise of the picture postcard, the emergence of image-packed magazines, and how photos did as many favours for the Venetian economy as the famous glassware. There's also a detailed account of how the technology evolved. Fittingly, the book contains many well-chosen illustrations--a reminder that putting camera in the hands of travellers was a good idea.", It's nice to have all the pictures and Smith's book tells the extraordinary tale of the relationship between travel and the photographic arts from 1830s to the present day. He covers an impressive amount of ground: photographs stealing the show at the great exhibitions of the 19th century, the rise of the picture postcard, the emergence of image-packed magazines, and how photos did as many favours for the Venetian economy as the famous glassware. There's also a detailed account of how the technology evolved. Fittingly, the book contains many well-chosen illustrations--a reminder that putting camera in the hands of travellers was a good idea., Graham Smith's Photography and Travel is an erudite and informed examination of the influence of photography on the concept of 'travel,' and reversely, of the wider world on photography as a means to record and introduce locations previously inaccessible to the majority.

Book arrived and is new. I would just recommend more than a shipping bag protecting the book. There were tears in plastic bag, but luckily only minimal damage to book.
