| webLongDescription | The 'pre-Raphaelite' photographer Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-79) developed a radical approach to photographing the human form. As early as the 1860s and 70s, Cameron - a practically self-taught photographer - was producing some of the most innovative and visually striking portraits of the time through her novel use of focus and lighting. She saw herself as an artist and her photographs reflect both her passion for beauty and the mid-Victorian fascination with literature, myth and heroes.
Photography is the visual medium of the modern world. It pervades our lives and shapes our perceptions. 55 is an ongoing series of beautifully produced pocket-sized, books that explore all aspects and styles of photography. They celebrate the world's most important photographers from the spheres of art, photojournalism, science, street photography, fashion photography and travel photography. Each volume of 128 pages focuses on an individual master's life work and its development. It features 55 of their key works presented chronologically with an accessible introduction and critical commentaries, telling both the photographer's story and the story of the world that shaped their views. |
