Description
NAEF, Weston J., and James N. Wood. Era of Exploration: The Rise of Landscape Photography in the American West, 1860-1885, Buffalo: Albright-Knox Art Gallery, and Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1975. Hardcover (gold and blind-stamped brown cloth), 9 1/8 x 12 inches, 260 pages, 313 halftone illustrations, dustjacket.
This is the groundbreaking study of nineteenth-century American Western landscape photography. This golden age was facilitated by popular curiosity, government support, and the perfect photographic combination of the wet-collodion negative and albumen paper. The text explores the science, nature, and art of the breathtaking pictures. The five main photographers represented, each with a section of their own, are William Henry Jackson, Eadweard J. Muybridge, Timothy H. O'Sullivan, Andrew Joseph Russell, and Carleton E. Watkins. A fragile book and dustjacket, due to its elongated format. Very good condition.
