Seller's Description:
VG (Slight scuffs to dj; slight scuffs to boards; otherwise nice and clean. ) Maroon and duotone illustrated DJ with white lettering; brown cloth over boards, gilt letters on spine; xiv, 438 pp.; 130 color plates, 253 bw figures. "This...richly illustrated book tells the first full history of the calotype, embedding it in the social context that crucially formed it: Britain's changing fortunes, intricate class structure, ever-growing industrialization, and new spirit under Queen Victoria. Of the 118 early photographs presented here in meticulously printed plates, many have never before been published or exhibited. And the histories of 500 calotypists, most previously unknown, are detailed in the volume's biographical dictionary, a valuable work of far-reaching scholarship the further demonstrates the major role played by the paper negative in mid-nineteenth-century Britain."--Jacket.
