Notes on the historiography and comprehensively Fragmentary world offered by Photography
The historicized methodology of the ‘meeting point’ between the pre-fixed frontal quality of sculpture and the overall appearance of painting is called as photography. So much for the aesthetic quality of mechanical reproducibility of imagery.
