Présentation de l'éditeur :
· With a Preface by Michael Pritchard, Director-General of the Royal Photographic Society · Includes previously unpublished photographs from the author's archive · A treasury of aristocratic photography from the 1850s to 1930s Photography was invented in the English country house by William Fox Talbot. The leisured and affluent upper classes went on to make an art form of their new toy, creating intimate portraits of stunning beauty. This timely new edition of a classic work includes previously unpublished photographs discovered in dusty corners and attics of Britain's grandest houses. It stands as a poignant testament to a way of life that has now all but vanished.
