The comprehensive, accessible and authoritative illustrated reference to the history, art and science of photography.
Working with an international expert panel of 150 consultants and 77 researchers, Nathalie Herschdorfer has triumphed in creating the first source of information for all scholars, practitioners and collectors of Photography to turn to in the future..
This landmark publication is the culmination of ten years of development and research.

In one single, elegant volume, this publication features over 300 iconic photographs and contains more than 1,200 concise yet fully detailed entries on all aspects of the subject.
