Nicole Hudgins

The Gender of Photography

How Masculine and Feminine Values Shaped the History of Nineteenth-Century Photography

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Yet for many years the gendered language of American, British and French photographic literature made it appear that women's interactions with early photography did not count as significant contributions.
