WeaverThe ∗art∗ Of Photography 1839–1989 (paper)
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

This magnificently illustrated book, which features over 80 colour and 400 black-and-white illustrations, provides a comprehensive introduction to photographic art over the last 150 years. It takes the reader on a historical journey of discovery - through the traditional genres of portraiture, landscape and still life, and the major stylistic changes of realism, modernism, documentary, and Post-modernism - to describe with choice examples photography's exciting evolution. This engrossing book, which includes new essays in the field, reprints of historic texts, and a wealth of the world's most famous and best known images, is the catalogue for an exhibition, organised by the Royal Academy of Arts, London, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, which opened in Houston in February 1989, moved on to the Australian National Gallery, Canberra in June and from there to the Royal Academy of Arts, London in September 1989.
