This history of photography, marking an ideal continuity with the “Art of the 20th century” series, responds to the need for accurate information for the general public and supplies more specialised investigations of the medium, offering an international overview Publication November 2015 The series offers a complete, up-to-date survey of photography through an original and transversal analysis. This special edition gathers four volumes in an exclusive slipcase inspired by the oldest surviving camera photograph, View from the Window at Le Gras, created by Nicéphore Niépce in 1826. The books provide an extraordinary repertory of images and a vast source of information, enriched through “focus on” windows and technical information, synoptic tables and a summary glossary. The essays, by some leading international experts, investigate and analyze in chronological order the transformations of the world’s photographic culture and the major figures that have shaped the development of photography. With a chronological division into four main periods (The Origins 1839–1890; A New Vision of the World 1891–1940; From the Press to the Museum 1941–1980; The Contemporary Era 1981–2013), this will be the most authoritative set on the subject.
