Class session #2 is the first part of a two-part overview of the history of photography; a sort of “condensed” history in order to get a sense of the medium’s “who, what, when and where.” This week, we cover from 1800 B.C. to 1888 A.D. Part two will follow next week.

The last hour is spent looking at some of the problems that the photo historian faces, including an introduction to the pioneering work of Daguerre and Fox Talbot.
