A true immersion into photography from its invention and beyond the borders of Europe, this work offers a polyphonic history of the beginnings of world photography.
Richly illustrated, alternating geographical divisions and transcontinental themes, Photographic Worlds, Stories of the Beginnings invites around fifty authors from five continents to recount experiences of the medium and to redraw the journeys of often little-known photographers, whether they are travelers or natives of the countries covered.
Through the pages, the reader will discover the extraordinary diversity of practices and uses of photography from the 19th century onwards in different parts of the world, exploring the work of the first photographers in Bombay and Madagascar, the daguerreotypes taken in South America and the portraits of indigenous populations in Australia.
