Description

Photography: The Whole Story leads you through the world’s most iconic photographs – those images that have become key reference points in our conception of ourselves and the world around us.

Organized chronologically, it traces the evolution of photography period by period, while detailed timelines provide historical and cultural context
The works of key photographers – such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz and Andreas Gursky – are assessed to reveal what motivated them, who influenced whom and what each was striving to achieve
Illustrated focal points single out such aspects as use of colour and visual metaphor, quirks of composition and technical innovation
Includes a diverse and international roster of contemporary practitioners

If you love photography and would like to know more, Photography: The Whole Story is for you.
