Iowa City: Univeristy of Iowa Press, Date: 1995. Hardcover. VG/VG- (light rubbing to corners & spine edges; fa light wear to dust jacket edges and corners). Burgundy cloth boards with gilt stamped spine lettering. Gray and photographic dust jacket with maroon and black lettering. xiv, 222 pp. BW photographs, Too often, photographic historians have given credit to the calotype for establishing our sense and standard of the photographic, when in reality it was the daguerreotype that first taught us how to see photographically, taking us beyond portraiture to a standard for scenic images that is still with us today. Here is the first study of scenic daguerreotypes from around the world and the largest assemblage of them ever to be presented in book form. Contending that L.J.M. Daguerre was at the forefront of the romantic revolution, Wood discusses Daguerre's work in the context of John Constable, J.M.W. Turner, and Caspar David Friedrich. He also draws parallels between early landscape photography, the poetry of William Wordsworth, and William Gilpin's notions of the picturesque, which influenced both travel and the way nineteenth-century men and women began to view the landscape around them. Wood's selection of more than a hundred images presents the best surviving examples of the scenic daguerreotype. They include views of the Acropolis, Egypt, and China, of mountains and Alpine scenery, of Pompeii, Venice, and the temples of Rome, of the California Gold Rush and other Amer ...

Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. 100 plates. Some of the finest photographs we will ever see, scrutinized with love, passion, and measure by one of the finest photography historian/scholars of our time. A fine copy.
