Infos

[vorl] In the early 1860s, the portrait of Queen Victoria was the first to be commercially distributed in Britain. Using this example, the book offers a history of commercial photography that shows how visual media were used to undergird the power of conventional concepts of order, and demonstrates how these conventions served competing narratives in their constant recontextualization.
