Condition: FINE. First printing, a large trade paperback. Monograph on these two nineteenth century upstate New York portrait painters, issued in conjuction with an exhibition of their work. As mention in the introduction by Barbara Franco, this represents the culmination of 13 years of research and its publication comes at a time when there is increasing debate about the definition and significance of folk art. In addition to many plates - including 8 in full color - of the works of these two "naive" or primitive artists, there is much information on their lives and that of their sitters by Jacqueline Oak. Also includes essays on 'The Genesee Country, 1790-1860' by William H. SIles, on 'Artisan Painting in America' by Mary Black, on 'The Daguerrotype as a Portrait Medium' by Grant Romer and more, 124 pp. Near fine in stiff illustrated covers (upper corner slightly bumped).…

Hardback. Condition: New. Published to accompany the first museum exhibition of scenic daguerreotypes, this beautiful catalogue showcases a private collection of extremely rare outdoor views, offering a unique insight into mid-nineteenth-century America as it started to become an industrial power The atmospheric illustrations capture the rich tonal nuance of daguerreotypes, reclaiming their rightful place in the American visual arts of the period. Scenic daguerreotypes, made over 175 years ago, are extremely rare today. Named after Louis Daguerre (1787-1851), daguerreotypes are the first widely practised type of photography, quite unlike any other: the result it is both an image and object, a unique vestige of its time and place. The selection presented here is almost entirely drawn from the private collection of American collector Greg French, who built it over a 40-year period into probably the largest of its kind. The types of scenery captured in these beautiful outdoor views are not limited to traditional landscapes: they include storefronts, hotels, cityscapes and cemeteries; rivers, waterfalls, ships and shipyards; schools, churches, houses and backyards; landscapes, farms, factories and gold mines; but also daguerreotype studios, railroads, marching bands and more. Together, these images build the fascinating picture of a young country not yet invaded by asphalt and concrete, metal poles, wires, cell-phone towers, traffic signs and cars. Highlights include a Cincinnati street scene by the African American daguerreotypist James Presley Ball, his only known surviving outdoor view; the only outdoor daguerreotype taken by a woman, Charlotte Prosch; a California gold-mining scene by George H. Johnson; and a rare view of 1850 San Francisco taken from Telegraph Hill. The selection also includes what can be considered the earliest pure landscape photograph in America, a whole plate daguerreotype made in 1840-41 by Samuel Bemis.The original aim of many of these views is not always clear. Though many were probably taken for documentary or commercial purposes, their complexity and mystery warrant more careful, in-depth observation. What appear at first glance to be simple records of places or buildings are, in fact, windows into the daguerreotypists' unique visual perspective as they explored this innovative technique. The daguerrean process was central to the finished image, and the results are a significant Nativist phenomenon in the American visual arts, well worthy of being considered along with the paintings and sculpture of the 1840s and '50s. With an essay by the preeminent daguerrean scholar Grant Romer and notes on the plates by the exhibition curator Allen Phillips, the catalogue aims to bring about an advanced understanding of this significant manifestation of nationality in the pictorial arts. Despite the dearth of surviving evidence, the rare and splendid pictures presented here illustrate how the daguerreotype process creates works that are amazing in their deli.…
