دانلود کتاب Explorers and Entrepreneurs behind the Camera. The stories behind the pictures and photographs from the Image Archive of the Ibero-American Institute

The images presented in this volume, taken from the
holdings of the Ibero-Amerikanisches Insitut (IberoAmerican Institute, IAI), date back to the early phase of
photography – more specifically from 1856 to 1939 – and
were taken in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Portugal,
Spain and Peru.
The order of the essays more or less follows the historical
development of photography and traces an arc from early studio photographs and expedition and travel photography to images that documented early film productions.
This publication also maps out the technological development of photography from the middle of the 19th century to the start of the 20th century. While in the early
days of photography, it was only possible to take pictures
in photo studios, it was not long before photographers
took to the road and scientists began to use the camera
as a research instrument
