This book focuses on early photography of key sites in Italy, Greece, Asia Minor, Egypt and North Africa, mostly from the period 1840 - 1880.
These pioneering photographs of ancient monuments are accompanied by five essays focusing on how photography changed archaeology, and on the changing topography of Athens.
Two of the essays deal with the photographers Girault de Prangey (1804 - 1892) and William J Stillman (1828 - 1901).
