Catalogue of photography. The Cleveland Museum of Art. Foreword by Evan H. Turne
Einband leicht berieben. - The collection's earliest photographs were made by pioneering English, French, and to a lesser degree American photographers working in the 1840s and 1850s making daguerreotypes, salted paper prints from calotype negatives, and albumen prints from wet collodion negatives. Aesthetic expression, alluring imagery, and physical condition guided our choices. As soon as a new work was acquired, its characteristics and the links it formed with other works in the collection opened up possibilities for luture acquisitions. Photographs produced by refinements to the early processes were added-prints from waxed paper negatives, for example-as well as images reflecting broader and more complex aesthetic goals and more diverse subject matter.
