Product Information
Photographs are an integral part of our daily lives from sensationalist images in tabloid papers to art photography displayed in galleries. In this thought-provoking exploration of the subject, Edwards combines a sense of the historical development of photography with an analysis of its purpose and meaning within a wider cultural context. Including both well-known and more unusual photographs, this book interrogates the way we look and think about photographs, and considers such issues as truth and recording, objectivity and fine art, identity and memory.Product Identifiers
