Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st. Cloth, 160 pages, illustrations, portraits; 28 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by arrangement. Profusely illustrated. "The French photographer Camille Silvy (1834-1910) was one of the most original artists of his time. More than any other nineteenth-century photographer, Silvy exemplifies Charles Baudelaire's idea of the artist as an interpreter of modern life. This book explores Silvy's innovative efforts to master industrial-scale portrait production alongside fineart photography in his popular London studio. Presenting sitters in modern dress was a new phenomenon and Silvy was a pioneer in the creation of the carte-de-visite (a photographic visiting card). This fascinating account of Silvy's life and photography is published to mark the centenary of his death. Combining research into exhibition prints, still lifes, and street scenes, as well as the intimate, beautifully lit and posed cartes-de-visite, the book demonstrates Silvy's extraordinary originality and his life as a man of both art and commerce. A previously unpublished photographic collection of his family is also included. / Mark Haworth-Booth is a renowned historian and curator of photography. Formerly senior curator of photographs at the Victoria and Albert Museum, he served as visiting professor of photography at the University of the Arts, London from 2003-10. He is the author of Camille Silvy: River Scene, France (Getty Publications, 1992)." - Publisher. Size: 4to. Collectible.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Camille Silvy (Photography (illustrator). 1st Edition. This copy is in new, unmarked and seemingly unread condition bound in black cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. The unclipped dust wrapper is in new condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. This new research presents Silvy as a photographer of extraordinary originality, with the first use of blur as a creative effect in the history of photography. With over 100 images from the hitherto unpublished collection of Silvy's family and from the Daybooks of his London studio, now in the Collection of the National Portrait Gallery, where Silvy kept a record of each sitter photographed. Mark Haworth Booth's recent research reveals Camille Silvy (1834-1910) as one of the most original photographers of his time. More than any other nineteenth-century photographer, Silvy exemplifies Charles Baudelaire's idea of the artist as an interpreter of modern life. Photographing modern people in modern dress was a new phenomenon and, with analysis of the origins of the carte-de-visite format, this book explores Silvy's pioneering efforts to master industrial scale portrait production alongside fine art photography in his fashionable London studio. Before moving to London, Silvy was well-represented in the first Paris Salon of Photography in Spring 1859. His River Scene, France (1858) can be understood as a tableau of modern leisure - including working class leisure - on the outskirts of town. New light will be shed on this master photograph as well as on Silvy's Studies on Light, (1859). These studies of fog, twilight and sunshine include original views of London streets as well as stylistic innovations. By combining research into both Silvy's exhibition prints, still-lifes and street scenes, as well as the intimate beautifully lit and posed cartes-de-visite, this book demonstrates Silvy was one of the most original and fashionable photographers of his time, and transformed portrait photography from an art into an industry. Accompanies the first ever retrospective exhibition of Silvy's work organised in conjunction with the Jeu de Paume, Paris Exhibition dates: National Portrait Gallery, London, 8 July-24 October 2010.
