Summary

Since 1930, when the museum accessioned its first photograph, a vast and unique archive of pictures has been assembled for study, preservation, and exhibition. Among the photographers whose work is reproduced and discussed here are Hill and Adamson, Cameron, OSullivan, Stieglitz, Strand, Weston, Cartier-Bresson, Lange, Ansel Adams, Minor White, and Robert Frank. Some of these photos are classics, familiar and well-loved favourites; many others are surprising, little-known works by the masters of the art, and a number are hitherto unpublished works by unknown photographers of the past.
