–

“The Thames & Hudson Dictionary of Photography
is a landmark publication that encompasses the history,
art and science of photography in a single volume.
At a time when information is instantly accessible
on the internet but is often of doubtful reliability
or provenance, this ambitious project both reasserts
the veracity, reliability and accuracy of scholarly
research in reference publishing and celebrates
the pleasure and immersive experience offered by
refined, elegant book design.
Compiled under the editorial guidance of Nathalie
Herschdorfer and in consultation with an international
panel of 150 experts, The Thames & Hudson Dictionary
of Photography is based on entirely fresh scholarship
by seventy-nine researchers from sixteen countries.
The culmination of nearly ten years of development and
research, this is the new, relevant and truly definitive
reference to photography.
Over 1,200 concise yet fully detailed entries on all
aspects of the subject, including photographers, images,
agencies, genres, movements, exhibitions, publications,
collectors, techniques and processes.
A comprehensive reference to over 180 years of
photographic history. Truly authoritative and based on
fresh scholarship.
Illustrated throughout with over 300 images showing
key works, artist portraits, exhibitions, installations,
publications and technical diagrams.
A book that offers an immersive experience,
combining a clear presentation with the very best in
modern yet timeless typographic design.”
