Participants in this seminar will consider selected topics in European and American photography between 1839 and 1920. We will embrace historical, technical, iconographic and theoretical methodologies, and will address such issues as instantaneity, art photography and reproduction, pictorialism, vernacular photography, and crosscurrents between photography, painting and the graphic arts. Class meets in the study room of the Department of Prints, Drawings and Photographs at the Clark Art Institute. Enrollment limited to 11.
