“A comprehensive study offering detailed analysis of how classical painting challenged, resisted, and was influenced by the emergence of photography. The text charts this fascinating history from photographys first forays into the public domain and the organizations set up to defend it against criticism, to the influence of figures such as Daguerre, whose daguerreotype invention raised the possibility of being able to accurately replicate images.”
