Description
When The History of Photography by Hemut and Alison Gernsheim was first published in 1955, it immediately established itself as the standard work on the subject, described by the Financial Times as 'the most important singe historical work in the field.' The first part of this classic book was revised by Professor Gernsheim and published as The Origins of Photography (1982). Now, in The Rise of Photography, he brings the revision of his magnum opus up to 1880.Tags

The Gernsheims (Helmut and Alison) had their first history published in 1955. They always had more material than could be published. Their history was significantly enlarged in a 1969 version. This is the first volume in what was to be a three volume expansion, that only got to two volumes in English.
