Art in Photography - European and American Work 1905

Art in Photography — With Selected Examples of European and American Work is a 284-page illustrated album edited by Charles Holme, published by the Offices of 'The Studio,' London, Paris and New York, 1905.

The volume brings together reproductions of the finest art photography of the period, organized in two sections: British and American. The prefatory note by Holme describes the artistic progress of photography in the late nineteenth century and cites the pioneering work of D.O. Hill (Scottish calotypes, 430 portraits for a single painting). The book aims to document the best recent work of leading photographic artists in Europe and America, with reproductions retaining the quality of original prints. Among the contributing photographers are Alfred Stieglitz, Eduard J. Steichen, Alvin L. Coburn, Clarence H. White, J. Craig Annan, F.H. Evans, Frederick Hollyer, Gertrude Käsebier, Eva Watson-Schütze, and Max Ferrars.

The British Section presents thirty-four plates (I–XXXIV) and the American Section twenty-four plates (I–XXIV), several reproduced in photogravure or colour.
