Art and the camera

Guest, Antony · 1907 · London : G. Bell · 20 pictures

A 1907 London photography book by Antony Guest, published by G. Bell and aimed at camera users interested in artistic pictures, held by the Getty Research Institute. The plates are printed photographs of landscapes, sheep, a cottage under a tree, and a riverside scene, each captioned with the photographer's name and a title, and they show how soft focus and tonal atmosphere were used to make photographs read as paintings.
