Commemorating the 150th anniversary of the birth of photography, this book celebrates the most important artistic accomplishments in the history of photography. Over 400 photographs - famous images as well as newly discovered material - represent the work of more than 200 photographers from public and private collections throughout the world. This volume studies the way that the camera has been used for creative expression and re-examines the history of photography as art in light of the historical research and criticism of the last decade.
