How to Read a Photograph by Ian Jeffrey

An art appreciation introduction to photography helps readers gain a deeper understanding of great photographers and their work in a richly illustrated resource that includes biographical profiles of more than one hundred major photographers, including Stieglitz, Cartier-Bresson, and Evans--along with a history of the medium, essential styles and movements, and techniques.

Ian Jeffrey taught in the art department of Goldsmiths College at the University of London during the 1970s and 1980s. In the early 1990s he lectured at the Central European University in Prague. In 1975 he organized and curated an exhibition of British photography, The Real Thing: An Anthology of British Photographs, 1840-1950, for the Arts Council of Great Britain. The same year Thames & Hudson published his Photography: A Concise History. In the 1980s he wrote for Alan Ross's London Magazine. In 1999 he assembled and introduced Revisions: An Alternative History of Photography for the National Museum of Photography, Film & Television. He wrote The Photo Book for Phaidon in 1997, and expanded it in 2014. In 2008 Abrams, Ludion, Schirmer/Mosel and Thames & Hudson published his How to Read a Photograph. 'Fatal Praise: John Ruskin and the Daguerreotype' appeared in John Ruskin: Artist and Observer, prepared in 2014 by the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, which also published his article 'Bohemian Odyssey: Josef Sudek's Publishing Projects' in a Sudek catalog of 2016.
