- This ground-breaking book refigures the history of early photography by shifting its focus from the photograph to the photographic image. Based on years of research about the distribution of such images in the illustrated press or as engravings or lithographs, the book offers a global account that embeds photography in the economies of industrialisation and colonialism. It gives historical flesh to the proposition that reproduction matters by tracing the career paths of the first two professional photography studios in Britain, providing a myriad of previously unknown details about how they operated and analysing the kinds of photographic image they produced.
