Impressed by Light by Roger Taylor
When photography appeared shortly before 1840, the metal-plate daguerreotype, was first to achieve popularity. But the process simultaneously developed in England for capturing an image on a paper negative, from which many positives could be printed. This book presents more than 120 photographs printed from paper negatives or calotypes.
Roger Taylor is Professor of Photographic History at De Montfort University, Leicester, and former Senior Curator of Photographs and Head of Research Development at the National Media Museum, Bradford, England.
