The History of Fashion Photography

The first systematic history of fashion photography, this perceptively written and superbly illustrated book deals not only with the somersaults of fashion but with changing trends in photography and in art taste, manners, and social customs. Exploding the theory that commercial photography is not art. Nancy Hall-Duncan shows that many of the world's most celebrated 'art' photographers, among them Andre Kertesz, Edward Steichen, Man Ray, George Platt Lynes, and Diane Arbus, also portrayed fashion.
