Revealing that nineteenth-century photography goes beyond the functional to reflect the cultural concerns of the time, this study proposes that each photographic image of architecture be studied both as a primary visual document and an object of aesthetic inquiry. The book offers a socio-historical examination of the material, considering questions of exoticism, gender, the art market, vernacular architecture, and historic preservation-never before comprehensively addressed in a single volume.
