The Art of Collecting Photography Summary

The Art of Collecting Photography by Laura Noble

The Art of Collecting Photography argues that establishing a collection of photography is an art in itself. Using examples from some of the best photographers in the world - from early masters such as Henry Talbot to modern classics from contemporaries such as Andreas Gursky and Man Ray - The Art of Collecting Photography covers all the aspects of successfully building a photographic collection. Whether intended for the amateur or professional collector, this book forms a comprehensive, exhaustive and easy-to-follow resource.
