Item Details
Description
REJLANDER, Oscar G. Edgar Yoxall Jones, Father of Art Photography: O. G. Rejlander, 1813-1875, Newton Abbot, England: David and Charles, 1973. Hardcover (gold-stamped blue paper over boards), 9 -¾ x 7 -½ inches, 112 pages, halftone illustrations, dustjacket. This biographical monograph appropriately opens with the frontispiece as Rejlander's notorious 1857 image, "The Two Ways of Life" shown in two versions and analyzed in great detail. Jones goes on to discuss the photographer's other, less-known work - tableaux, genre, allegories, and "studies of the ideal" Among them are illustrations for Charles Darwin's 1872 book, On the Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, some of which Rejlander posed for himself. Rejlander (1813 -1875) was one of the first Victorian photographers to self-consciously attempt to make high art with the camera. Very good condition.
