Full textAbstract:
This essay investigates the conditions of portrait photography in Taiwan during Japanese colonization. After a brief introduction to the theoretical issues concerning the indexical nature of the photograph, I consider the Japanese colonial photographic industry and its products (portraits) in three contexts: the state of photographic technology in the world at that time, the ideological machinery of colonization in Taiwan, and the wider phenomenon of colonial mimicry. In this consideration, I offer a diachronic analysis of photo albums and commercial directories that contain formal portraits of politically and economically influential (almost exclusively) men. Bringing these considerations together suggests an aspect of the colonial ideological machinery that has been underrepresented in other studies: the colonial portrait as a mask in several forms.

Résumé: A partir d’une enquête portant sur le cas du photographe francais Arthur Batut (1846-1918) qui s’est emparé de la technique du composite portraiture de Francis Galton, nous révélerons dans un premier temps l’importance considérable du portrait photographique dans la constitution, à la fin du XIXe siècle, d’une nouvelle image de soi particulière correspondant à une identité “physicalisée”. Pour ce faire, nous mettrons à l’épreuve les questions et la méthode de la microstoria. Dans un second temps, nous envisagerons la possibilité que la technique historiographique de la microstoria elle-même ne puisse se penser sans l’emergence d’un “regard photographique”.Mots-clés: Arthur Batut, histoire de la photographie, historiographie, microstoria, portrait, anthropologie visuelle.Abstract: This paper investigates the case of Arthur Batut, a 19th century French photographer from Labruguiere (Tarn), who employed a different perspective to reproduce the technique of the composite portraiture, invented by Francis Galton, the father of “eugenics”. We will first reveal the major implication of photography within the constitution of a new quantified and physicalized image of the self at the end of the 19th century by examining Batut’s photography, notably the microstoria method. Secondly, we will examine the possibility that the historiographical technique of microstoria itself would be implausible without the emergence of a “photographic look”.Key words: Arthur Batut, history of photography, historiography, microstoria, portrait, visual anthropology.

Full textAbstract:
Taking a visual stroll down the backdrops and sceneries of the master photographer Josip Pelikan is accompanied by commentary supplied by the Celje Museum of Recent History’s senior educator and carer of Pelikan’s collection, Helena Vogelsang. Painted backgrounds with various motifs used by Pelikan in both portraying and in his everyday work in the studio represent a key part of the photographer’s heritage and are part of a permanent exhibition in a skylight studio. It is the only preserved example of a skylight photo studio from the end of the 19th century in Slovenia. Various backdrops enabled the portrayed person to be presented in a way that suited him or her best; e.g. raising their social status, being placed in a specific environment or in a different position than the person occupied in real life. This surely influenced the popularity of portraits made in the wet collodion technique by contemporary photographer Borut Peterlin. In this way, the photographer revitalised the importance of Pelikan’s backgrounds and renewed the interest in old analogue photography techniques as well as a comprehensive studio portrait experience, which today no longer holds a prominent place among photographic practices. Keywords: 20th century photograhy, background, Josip Pelikan, photographic backdrop, portraiture, skylight studio, Slovenian photography, studio photography

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to examine the rules of written approval for the Commercialization of Portrait Photography as contained in Article 12 Paragraph (1) of the Copyright Law No. 28 of 2014 in the context of Improving the Distro Business in Indonesia.
Design/methodology/approach: The type of legal research used is normative juridical research. The approach used in this research is the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The sources of legal materials used in this doctrinal research consist of primary legal materials and secondary legal materials. The collected legal materials will be analyzed in a qualitative normative manner by reviewing, interpreting, and constructing statements contained in in-laws and regulations and other legal documents related to issues related to photo commercialization.
Findings: Given the increasing competition in the business world, many creative business actors make their productions interesting, one of which is done by making t-shirts with portraits of artists and public figures obtained from the photographer who took the photo shoot. For example, example, a photographer takes a photo of an artist and uses it to line up his photo studio by making advertisements or billboards for the artist's portrait in his photo studio and has obtained permission from the artist, then the photographer sells the results of his work to the person, who by that person takes the portrait of the artist in the photo. fit on t-shirts to produce and sell. In this case, the photographer and the person who bought the photographer's portrait (portrait photography) violated copyright because the commercialization of portrait photography contained in the t-shirt was carried out without written permission from the person being photographed, while the regulation of portrait commercialization in Law No. 28 the year 2014 concerning Copyright, permission or approval of the person being photographed is only limited to commercialization for advertising and billboards, even though there are economic benefits that the t-shirt seller gets from the sale of the t-shirt and in fact, the t-shirt sells because the buyer bought the t-shirt because of the artist's portrait. in the shirt.

Full textAbstract:
This article explores the meaning of photographic portraits of First World War Italian migrants, in terms of the tensions that emerge from their visual codes and the extent to which the subject’s interior reality and individuality might emerge from the reassuring surface imagery of photography and war. By analysing photographs of Italian migrants who either joined Italy’s army or enrolled in their adopted country’s army, we can see how the ‘otherness’ of the war – its artificial face of idealised glory, honour, and ordinariness, as presented through the portrait’s aesthetic codes – supplants the ‘otherness’ of the migrant individual, that is, their ambivalent life in between different cultures, traditions and identities. Yet, beyond the physical and psychological annihilation of the modern war, the photographic portrait, with its fabricated order and ‘otherness’, becomes, for the migrant soldier, a means of giving coherence to his dislocated existence. The nostalgic visual codes of the photograph, however, evoke an order that is now denied by the destructive mobility and mobilisation of both migration and war.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the early history of photographic industry in Kyiv as a complex cultural phenomenon. Special attention is focused on the portrait photography as a ‘technology of memory’. It involves methods of social history of art, prosopography and visual anthropology. The study is based on the wide scope of archival documents, including the correspondence of publishing facilities inspector, who supervised the photographic activity in Kyiv from 1888 to 1909. By the early 20th century, making, collecting, displaying and exchanging the photographic portraits became an important memorial practice for townspeople throughout the world. In the pre-WWI Kyiv dozens of ateliers produced photographic portraits in large quantities. While the urbanization and economic growth boosted migration activity and washed out traditional family and neighborhood networks, the photography provided an instrument for maintaining emotional connections between people. The author emphasizes the role of a professional photographer who acted as a maker of ‘memory artifacts’ for individuals and families and, therefore, established aesthetic standards for their private visual archives. It is stated that the professional photography played a noticeable role in modernization and westernization of Kyiv. With its relatively low barrier to entry, it provided a professionalization opportunity for women, representatives of the lower social classes or discriminated ethnic groups (such as Poles after the January Insurrection, and Jews). While working in a competitive environment, photographers had to adopt new technologies, improve business processes and increase their own educational level. At the same time, their artistic freedom was rather limited. The style of photographic portrait was inherited from the Eighteen and Nineteen-century academic art, so it is usually hard to distinguish photographic portraits made in Kyiv or in any other European city of that period. Body language of models, their clothing and personal adornments as well as studio decorations and accessories aimed to construct the image of successful individuals, faithful friends, closely tied family members with their own strictly defined social roles etc. The old-fashioned style of the early twentieth century portraiture shaped the visual aesthetics of photographic portrait that was noticeable enough even several decades later.

Full textAbstract:
What can photographic form teach us about feminist historiography? Through close readings of photographs by visual artist and documentary photographer Sheba Chhachhi, who documented the struggle for women’s rights in India from the 1980s onward, this article outlines the political stakes of documentary photography’s formal conventions. First, it analyzes candid snapshots of recent protests for women’s rights in India, focusing on an iconic photograph by Chhachhi of Satyarani Chadha, a community organizer and women’s rights activist, at a rally in New Delhi in 1980. It attends to the way in which such photographs turn personal scenes of mourning into collective memorials to militancy, even as they embalm their subjects in a state of temporal paralysis and strip them of their individual history. It contrasts these snapshots to Chhachhi’s collaborative portrait of Chadha from 1990, a “feminist still” that deploys formal conventions of stillness to stage temporal encounters between potential histories and unrealized futures. Throughout, the article returns to the untimeliness of Chhachhi’s photography, both in the multiple temporalities opened up within the image and in its avant-garde critique of feminist politics through experiments with photographic form.

Full textAbstract:
This article takes its cue from an essay by Gerhard Richter on Walter Benjamin and the fascist aestheticization of politics. It examines the portrait photography of Dutch photographer W.F. Van Heemskerck Düker, who was a true believer in the ideology of a Greater Germany. He published a number of illustrated books on the Dutch Heimat and worked together with German photographers Erna Lendvai-Dircksen and Erich Retzlaff. When considering what type of photography was best suited to capture the photographic aesthetics of the fascist nation, the article argues that within the paradigm of the Greater German Heimat we find not so much a form of anthropometric photography, as exemplified by the work of Hans F.K. Günther, as a genre of Heimat portraits that was better equipped to satisfy the need to unify two crucial structural oppositions in fascist ideology, namely mass versus individuality, and physical appearance versus inner soul.

Full textAbstract:
The relationship between painting and photography has been dynamic since its invention in 1839. Seeking its place among the arts, photography was a useful tool for many. In this way portraits were made, which before the invention of photography were the privilege of higher social strata, and their production required spending long hours in a painting studio. With the advent of photography, portraits of individuals and entire families have become much more accessible to ordinary people, and the new technique has gained immense popularity. The possibility of getting portraits from photos as a status symbol was very tempting. In order to respond to such requests from clients, photographic studios teamed up with painters to create oil portraits painted from photography made on canvas. Such portraits became a substitute for classic painted portraits, but they were created faster and were less expensive. Often portraying important historical figures, they have found their place in museum collections. In addition to documentary value, they are also important for the history of art techniques, due to the specific way of production. Despite their popularity at the time of their creation, modern analyses of oil painted portraits made from photography on canvas are rare, and have been published mostly in conservation journals. After the introduction to the techniques and materials described in the literature, the paper presents two oil portraits from a photography made on canvas: a portrait of Isaija Oluić, abbot of the Krupa Monastery, from the fund of the Dalmatian Diocese of the Serbian Orthodox Church, made by Vlaho Bukovac, and a portrait of Nika Mihajlović, prominent Sombor lawyer and philanthropist, from the fund of the City Museum in Sombor, painted by Uroš Predić. The analytical approach to the identification of oil painting techniques from photography (optical analysis and the analysis of materials) was pointed out, as well as the fact that they are sensitive objects in museum collections, the protection of which should be given due attention.

The article covers the life and creative development of one of the little known Ukrainian photographers and painters of the first half of the twentieth century, who was Mykhaylo Shalabavka. In order to disclose his biographical data in more detail, the information provided by modern researchers 399 has been supplemented with archival materials. Due to their analysis, first of all, M. Shalabavka’s letters to Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytskyi presented many new facts that characterize the artist’s participation in public life in the formation of the Ukrainian school of photography first in Lviv, his beliefs about further ways of its development. Emphasizing his active participation in public life, the article stated that he executed hundreds of photographs of national liberation competitions of the Ukrainian people of the early twentieth century, life and way of life of Boykivschyna, Hutsulschyna and Podillya, architecture of Lviv. Particular attention is paid to the photo portraits that brought the author glory. One of his most famous works, Portrait of Oleksa Novakivskyi, and little-known photographs of prominent representatives of the Greek Catholic Church of the twentieth century, discovered in the collections of the Vasyl Stefanyk National Scientific Library of Ukraine in Lviv named after, are analyzed in detail. It is substantiated that by performing portraits, M. Shalabavka worked according to the requirements of the time, which included the use of the traditions of the portrait genre of previous centuries. This has significantly influenced the artist’s works, securing them a proper place in the history of photography. Due to many years of work by photographer M. Shalabavka in the late 1930’s, he turned to painting, performed an oil painting «Portrait of Klymentii Sheptytskyi». He is one of the later artists and sums up his multidimensional experience. Keywords: Mykhaylo Shalabavka, Ukrainian photographers, history, life and way of life, portrait, Klymentii Sheptytskyi.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the semantics and function of the photographic portrait of Nastasya Filippovna in the novel “The Idiot” by F.M. Dostoevsky’s; the symbolic nature and role of photography in the polyphonic world of the novel are determined. In the middle of the 19th century, this type of visual art was in the zone of increased attention and controversy; the reason for this was the possibility of replicating photographs and, accordingly, their non-unique nature. The purpose of the article is to understand how F.M. Dostoevsky responded to discussion about photography; to determine what meanings he put into this aesthetic sign, what function photography performs in the literary world of “The Idiot”. The research methodology is based on semiotic, historical, cultural and narrative approaches: photography is viewed as a semiotic element (a sign with semantics); as an element of a narrative constructions about the image of Nastasya Filippovna. The historical and cultural context makes it possible to clarify the attitude of contemporaries and F.M. Dostoevsky to the phenomenon of photography. In the course of the study, it was established that photography is a significant element of the artistic image of Nastasya Filippovna; important character traits of the heroine are revealed due to a photographic portrait: pride, the desire for personal significance, a sense of taste. Sharing the opinion of his contemporaries about the impermeability of a person's inner appearance to the camera, Dostoevsky makes photography a structural principle of the female image: a photographic portrait demonstrates the heroine’s external beauty, but hides her inner appearance. In the literary world of the polyphonic novel, photography forms the mystery of the Nastasya Filippovna’s image, its dialectical complexity and contradictoriness.

The current abundance of scholarship concerning the technological development of photography has coexisted with a proportionate absence of recent critical analysis of photographic images. Given photography's long-standing embrace of technological advances, even predating the portable camera or roll film, this article revisits some early uses of scientific photography in order to clarify the impact of digital technology on contempo-rary photographic practice. The author uses scientific photogra-phy and photographic archives as the groundwork for photo-graphic experiments into what might be called analytical photography. The essay con-cludes with a reconsideration of the photographic portrait.

This article examines transnational kinship relations between Gambian parents in the UK and their children and carers in The Gambia, with a focus on the production, exchange and reception of photographs. Many Gambian migrant parents in the UK take their children to The Gambia to be cared for by extended family members. Mirroring the mobility of Gambian migrants and their children as they travel between the UK and The Gambia, photographs document changing family structures and relations. It is argued that domestic photography provides an insight into the representational politics, values and aesthetics of Gambian transatlantic kinship relations. Further, the concept of the moral economy supports a hermeneutics of Gambian family photographic practice and develops our understanding of the visual economy of transnational kinship relations in a number of ways: it draws attention to the way in which the value attributed to a photograph is rooted in shared moral and cultural codes of care within transnational relations of inequality and power; it helps us to interpret Gambians’ responses to and treatment of family photographs; and it highlights the importance attributed to portrait photography and the staging, setting and aesthetics of photographic content within a Gambian imaginary.

Abstract This article aims to give the reader a language with which one can discuss portraits of academics and their usage. Moreover the four most frequently used genres of portraits of academic authors will be introduced. And it will be argued why insight into, and knowledge of these genres is crucial in order to make the correct choice of portrait in the light of the context. The most relevant genres within photography of academics can be found within four categories: The classical portrait, the staged portrait, the situational portrait and the news portrait. When choosing a portrait whether it is for the news, public relations or the back cover of a book it is useful to have a vocabulary about the visual elements concerning photography of academics. Such a language can be provided by semiotics, and in this context I have drawn on aspects of the semiotic theories of Ferdinand de Saussure, Roland Barthes, and Charles Sanders Peirce.

AbstractStudies exploring the link between the representation of judges, photography and mass media tend to focus on the appearance of cameras in courtrooms and the reproduction of the resulting photographs in the press at the beginning of the twentieth century. But more than fifty years separate these developments from the birth of photography in the late 1830s. This study examines a previously unexplored encounter between the English judiciary and photography that began in the 1860s. The pictures where known as ‘carte de visite’. They were the first type of photographic image capable of being mass produced. It is a form of photography that, for a period of almost twenty years, attracted a frenzy of interest. Drawing upon a number of archives, including the library of Lincoln's Inn, London's National Portrait Gallery and my own personal collection this paper has two objectives. The first is to examine the carte portraits of senior members of the judiciary that were produced during that time. What appears within the frame of this new form of judicial portraiture? Of particular interest is the impact the chemical and technological developments that come together in carte photographs had on what appears within the frame of portraits. The second objective is to examine the manner in which they were displayed. This engages a commonplace of scholarship on portraiture; the location and mode of display shape the meaning of what lies within the frame of the picture. Carte portraits were produced with a particular display in mind: the album. They were to be viewed not in isolation, but as part of an assemblage of portraits. Few albums survive. Those that do offer a rare opportunity to examine the way carte portraits of judges were used and the meanings they generated through their display. Three albums containing carte portraits of judges will be considered.

This essay traces the resurrection of the fotoescultura, a three-dimensional photographic portrait popular in rural Mexico in the early 20th century, as interpreted in recent works by Performing Pictures, a contemporary Swedish artist duo. The early fotoesculturas were an augmented form of portraiture, commissioned by family members who supplied photographs that artisans in Mexico City converted into framed sculptural portraits for display on family altars. We compare these »traditional« photographic objects with “new” digital forms of video animation on screen and in the public space that characterize Performing Pictures work, and explore how the fotoescultura inspired new incarnations of their series Men that Fall. At the intersection between the material aspects of a “traditional” vernacular art form and “new” media art, we identify a photographic aesthetic that shifts from seeing and perceiving to physical engagement, and discuss how the frame and its parergon augment the photographic gaze. The essay is accompanied by photos and video stills from Performing Pictures’ film poem Dreaming the Memories of Now (2018), depicting their work with the fotoesculturas. Keywords: fotoesculturas, frame, parergon, vernacular photography, videoart

Full textAbstract:
The stylistics of the child portrait in Russia in the 1850s – early 20th century underwent significant changes due to the emergence of photography (light painting). From the very beginning of its era, the 1850s, early photography borrowed composition, means of expression, and attributes from painting. Towards the end of the century, artists began to pay attention to the achievements of portrait photography, striving to depict children not in a staged way, but rather in moments of play, studies and rest, taking heed of photographic effects, in particular, cropped and “blurred” compositions. Many Russian artists used photo sketches, rethinking and re-creating the image of a child in their works. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the child portrait turned into an expressive medium of the artist’s self. By contrast, child photography focused on a specific child, with an emphasis on the continued documentation of the stages of his or her growth and development. The art form experienced further technical improvement, which led to the flourishing of the child photo portrait in the subsequent periods.

Full textAbstract:
In 1920, Louis Lumière, one of the fathers of Cinématograph, invented photostereosynthesis, a photography technique that could recreate three-dimensional images without a specific artifice. This method involved stacking six to eight photographs of the same subject, usually a portrait, recorded with a progressive shift in focus and observed together through transparency. This invention remained at the laboratory experiment stage, and only a dozen portraits of famous people from the time of Lumière are known. The final device is a complex assembly of glass plates mounted on a wooden frame, and it is fragile, bulky, heavy, and difficult to build and observe. Here, we demonstrate that we can replace the stack of photographic plates with a single reflection hologram. Experiments were successfully conducted using the digital CHIMERA holographic stereogram printing technique. This new method of holostereosynthesis will facilitate the restoration and dissemination of the historical portraits originally recorded by Louis Lumière and may also allow the creation of brand new images.

One of the activities to express yourself is through photography. Photography is not just an activity to take pictures or take pictures. However, expertise is also needed to be able to apply the basic techniques and composition of photography properly so that the resulting photos are more interesting. One Indonesian female photographer whose works are very interesting is Nicoline Patricia Malina. Nicoline is very famous for her Fashion Photography work. Nicoline's Fashion Photography works are usually used for editorial purposes. One of them is entitled 'Swarnadwipa'. In this photographic work, Nicoline uses a photographic composition of leading lines, symmetry, fill the frame, and the rule of third in portrait and landscape photo formats. Nicoline also uses a combination of gold tones which is a concept from the 'Swarnadwipa' photo series, and there are several other colors such as brown, black, gray and silver. Apart from that, Nicoline also used the Borobudur Temple building as a background for the 'Swarnadwipa' photo. This analysis uses a descriptive qualitative method, which aims to find out what photographic compositions are used in the 'Swarnadwipa' editorial fashion photo as well as to find out what the relationship between the photographic composition and the concept of 'Swarnadwipa'.

Based on research I conducted in 2005–2006 and in 2009, I examine in this article the production and use of digital photographic studio portraiture in Damascus. Following the material turn in the study of photography, I focus not only the content and look of digital portraits, but also their materialities, spatial dispositions and their uses once they leave the space of the studio. First, I explore the visual language of Damascene digital portraiture, paying particular attention to the capabilities of digital photography to produce new forms of embodiment, religiosity and social connection for the portrait subject. In the second half of the article, I track studio portraits into the shop spaces of Damascus’ marketplaces, where they are hung on walls or displayed on desks, most frequently as memorials to deceased patriarchs. I suggest that these memorial portraits work as evidentiary information about the shop and also produce affective and actionable memories for merchant and customers alike.

How do we respond to the vulnerability of the Other when we do not see his face? How do photographer and viewers position themselves ethically in relation to the (hi)story of suffering they are called to witness? These are the questions that steer my reflection about Jillian Edelstein’s unpublished photograph of Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Taken shortly after the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) completed its work, the photograph evokes the moment during the TRC hearings when the Archbishop, Chairman of the commission, laid down his head and wept. Drawing on Emmanuel Levinas’s conceptualization of “the face”; I discuss how affect is produced within and through Edelstein’s photograph, and specifically how the affective quality of the photograph both contributes to an understanding of the experience of suffering within the context of the TRC and summons an ethical response from the viewer.

Full textAbstract:
On two occasions (around 1932–1933 and after the war, between 1946 and 1950), Stanisław Kolowca (1904–1968) undertook the task of creating the photographic documentation of the reredos of the altar of the Dormition of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Kraków (Poland). The stature of Wit Stwosz’s work – widely recognized as one of the key late Gothic masterpieces in Europe – could be the only factor legitimizing the status of Kolowca’s photographs. Nevertheless, the photographs seem to deserve a thorough analysis for other reasons as well. It should be underlined that in his project Kolowca did not focus only on the most obvious shots illustrating the altarpiece. In addition to long shots and full shots showing the characteristic iconographic motifs and portrait-type close-ups, reflecting the mastery of key figures (such as Virgin Mary or John the Baptist), the photographer also created completely unexpected compositions that go beyond the codified frames of documentary photography. Consequently, his works fundamentally problematize the concept of photographic reproduction of an art piece.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, I discuss a performance arts–based visual methodology based on the use of the archaic wet collodion photography. The collaboration between Street Collodion Art photography collective and myself, as a researcher, had two aims: to generate a large scale photographic and narrative portrait of Lower Silesia in Poland, and to explore identities in the region where nearly all of its inhabitants represent recent migrant populations. Data generated through this project include collodion portraits, their interpretations and narratives collected through unstructured interviews. Initial data analysis has generated identity narratives linked to work, place and belonging and ethnicity/nationality. In addition, in 2016 and 2017, three exhibitions of the portraits and a selection of edited stories took place in Lubin, Legnica and Wrocław attended by local inhabitants, including project participants. The examination of the arts-based methodology finds that the ritual character of the wet collodion photographic encounter has acted as a form of artistic intervention which, in generating memory narratives, enabled an articulation of social identities in the climate dominated by nationalist discourses. Such symbolic work emerging out of the project reveals a critical potential in the collaboration between the arts and social research. Furthermore, the project has shown that despite different traditions of practice, a collaboration between the artists and social researchers can yield rich data and access participants in ways that conventional methodologies cannot.

The research questions are how photographing landscape portrait composition, whether landscape portrait composition can enrich the composition of the landscape, and how the outcome of portrait landscape that can be enjoyed in general. The methods used are observation, exploration on the method of creation, experiment or improvisation, embodiment, and presentation of work. The sceneries in Bali have been selected to provide the different compositions using landscape portrait composition. In photographing the landscape portrait, photographers should use good composition, as in the portrait landscape use good composition can provide the depth dimension of the photograph, so the photos taken can still be attractive at first sight.

Full textAbstract:
Photography is a visual language that prioritizes the role of light. In photography there are several shooting formats, one of which is portrait or shooting vertically. Portrait photos are photos of a person's face that can reveal the character of the person, therefore the shooting exposure must be precise. In fact, the current portrait photos are not optimal because they do not consider the aspects of light and the correct shooting technique. Portrait photos can easily be done using window lighting techniques. This research was carried out on portrait photos with window lighting techniques produced from two different types of DSLR cameras. In the world of photography especially beginner photographers assume that the higher the level or class of the camera can produce better images. However, in the world of photography the results of good images are not solely produced by professional-class cameras, but by considering the exact exposure when shooting. Through this window lighting technique, researchers hope to find the essence and formula of making portrait photos that are of good quality and can be done by DSLR camera users. A good portrait photo, besides revealing a person's character also has a strong impact power.

This carefully composed portrait of a high-ranking Ottoman bureaucrat is striking for several reasons. First, at nearly 16 by 13 inches, it is at least four times larger than most portraits of this period and lacks the ornamental cardboard frame into which portraits were commonly placed, instead being pasted directly onto a cardboard support. Second, although there is a long tradition of documenting men at work or places of business in the photography of the late Ottoman Empire, these images tend to privilege traditional occupations (e.g., itinerant merchants or craftsmen) and sites of commerce, such as outdoor markets, the covered bazaar, or shops along the Grande Rue de Pera in Istanbul. Third and finally, in its setting, the objects chosen to be included on the desk, and the pose of the central figure, the portrait insists upon the modernity of the subject as its primary message, raising questions about its intended audience.

This article explores how an oceanic perspective challenges still pervasive ideas about the constitutive link between place and culture in the study of the arts of Africa. Taking the rich and diverse photographs of nineteenth-century coastal eastern Africa as a springboard, the author considers how portrait photography was not an expression of a local modernity, in the way the concept is narrated in established studies of the cultural dimensions of globalization, but was an expression of the in-between. This can be described as a form of cosmopolitanism or creolization, depending on one’s interpretive predilections, but, most important, it emphasizes that historical actors on the Swahili coast of eastern Africa did not worry about what was authentically local or indigenous in the making of modernity. In coastal eastern African port cities, the photograph became instantly popular in the 1860s, because it was linked to the traveling cultures of the port, giving new form to a very old desire to create aesthetic experiences of oceanic connectedness. Additionally, the portrait photograph allowed residents of the port to merge Swahili ideals of the cultured body, colonial codes of the body, and newly forming ideas about individual subjectivity. Ultimately, the author suggests that in such nonterritorial spaces as the Swahili port city, engaging the artifacts of faraway places is a carefully crafted tactic of translation, where technologies of modernity, such as photography, enable people simultaneously to sustain a sense of distance and closeness to others.

Biometric portrait as one of the most important means of identifying requirements through strict definition of dimensional relationships, preservation of realistic information about all technical characteristics of the photographic image, so that all biometric values can be digitized and used in recognition. The great variety and accessibility of applications for digital processing of digital record of a photographic image has enabled a visually convincing display of a forged photograph that leaves a different impression on the viewer and transmits a different, that is, a forged message. Due to the need to prove the authenticity of the digital record of the photographic image, methods have been developed for the analysis of the record that can detect deviations from the real record even when there are no visual signs of processing the photographic image. Not all analysis techniques can detect certain methods of photo manipulation, so multiple digital photography detection and analysis techniques need to be applied. In order to prove its authenticity, the scientific paper deals with methods for analysis and detection of forgery of digital photography with respect to the digital record and the structure of JPEG format.

Martin Parr (1952) is considered to be one of the most iconic and influential photographers of his generation. Parr, whom obtained a photography degree at Manchester Polytechnic (1970–1973), joined the classics of British documentary photography with a series of black and white photographs of the disappearing folk customs of Northern England. In the 80s he managed to make his breakthrough to the global photography scene (and market). At that time, impressed by American colour photography, he took on photographing on colour film himself. He made The Last Resort (1983–1985), a series of British working class while spending holidays in a coastal resort in New Brighton, which remains one of his most recognizable work to this day. After its first presentation in the Serpentine Gallery in London in 1986, the project triggered turbulence and division of opinions of both professionals and general public. Polarization of opinions became a constant in Parr’s photography career. The polemics he caused by first becoming a member (1994) and then the president of Magnum Photos (2013–2017) are well known. The critics castigated Parr for being cruel and voyeuristic, and that he claimed to only be photographing what he sees, while he benefited from making a mockery of others. His unconventional use of the medium, smooth traversing through different contexts of photography and flirting with obvious commercial interests was deemed controversial and questionable by many (until today).

Full textAbstract:
This essay examines the interface between the indexical and the gestural, through the practice of early twentieth-century painters active in the Bombay Presidency and adjoining princely states such as Kolhapur and Aundh. It draws upon archival materials such as biographies, memoirs, and photographs documenting artists at work in the studio, as well as remains of posed photographs that were produced as aide-mémoire for paintings. It throws light on the fraught place of photography as aesthetic practice in the art academy, its association with colonial protocols of scientific accuracy, capture and control, and its use to construct suggestive representational hybrids of the anatomical and the painterly outside the academy. The article explores patterns of patronage and of the use of photography in the practices of art production, publication, and exhibition, looking, in particular, at the role of the photographic basis of the portrait painting, and how photography became a supplement to “life-study” or the practice of drawing from nude models. The gendered politics of this interface, between artist, technology, and female model is a recurrent thread of analysis, drawing on critical debates that were published in Marathi periodicals of the time. The article explores the braiding of technologies in artistic practice in different sites, from the academy and the artist’s studio through to publication and exhibition in galleries, and illustrated magazines. While the essay considers a number of artists, including Ravi Varma, Durandhar, and Thakur Singh, it focuses, in particular, on Baburao Painter for his engagement with photography and painting in a career which traversed theater, painting, photography, and film production.

Full textAbstract:
Medical photography, and in particular dermatological imagery, is often assumed to provide an objective, and functional, representation of disease and that it can act as a diagnostic aid. By contrast, artistic conceptions of the images of the body tend to focus on interpretative heterogeneity and ambiguity, aiming to create or explore meaning rather than enact a particular function. In her 2015 retrospective exhibition at the Tate Modern, South African artist Marlene Dumas questions these disciplinary divides by using medical imagery (among other photographic sources) as the basis for her portraits. Her portrait ‘The White Disease’ draws on an unidentified photograph taken from a medical journal, but obscures the original image to such a degree that any representation of a particular disease is highly questionable. The title creates a new classification, which reflects on disease and on the racial politics of South Africa during apartheid. Though, on the one hand, these techniques are seemingly disparate from the methods of medical understanding, features such as reliance on classification, and attempts at dispelling ambiguity, bring Dumas’ work closer to the history of dermatological portraits than would usually be perceived to be the case. In considering the continuities and disparities between conceptualisations of skin in dermatology and Dumas’ art, this paper questions assumptions of photographic objectivity to suggest that there is greater complexity and interpretative scope in medical dermatological images than might initially be assumed.

Full textAbstract:
The purposes of this study are to know generally the perception and view of photographers on artistic photography in a purposeful sample in Turkey. Participants were purposefully selected (purposive sample) from the community of photographers because it would represent diverse photographers in Turkey. The survey included 19 questions and divided into three parts. Findings of our study revealed that most of the participants were at their middle-age, male, married, university graduates, private sector employed, DSLR users, amateur/ traveling-landscape-portrait photographers, and they shoot their photos to be happy, to document anything, and for spending time (Hobby). They mainly thought that photos should be taken for documentary reasons. The creativity is mainly dependent on perspective (or photographic seeing). Good photography could be achieved with good photographic technique, a good photo is relying on the influence to the spectator, photo critics/reading should be mainly based on technique, the most influential movement is realism, artistic photography will improve, photography in future will improve, and some are participating in photographic projects. The results show that good grounds exist in Turkey to shape artistic photography for the needs of the 21st century.

This seminar paper analyzes 19th century portrait photographs in British-India, which were mainly made by and addressed at British citizens. Regarding the wide range of genres, it can be shown that these photographs hardly give a realistic image of India, but instead reflect the contemporaneous British view on the colony and its native inhabitants. Photography was therefore an essential instrument of colonial policy. By creating a culturally inferior “other”, it helped legitimating the British rule over India.

Full textAbstract:
Ilse Bing was one of those Weimar photographers whose work was recognized or rediscovered later than that of many of her more famous female peers. Her photographic project sprang largely from her persistent subversion of the stylistic oppositions of New Vision photography and New Objectivity. Just as complex was the work she produced after moving to Paris, defined as it was by her cross-cutting of Weimar socialist and French Surrealist photographic mentalities. Comparable in her precise socio-political analysis to the Frankfurt School's critiques of emerging mass-cultural and political formations, Bing's work in the United States, where, barred from publishing in magazines, she was able to pay witness to photography's functioning as a new ideological- and cultural-industrial medium—acquired the melancholic features of a mordant critique of traditional photographic genres such as the portrait.

Full textAbstract:
This study takes the Memorial Hall of the Victims of Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders as a case to discuss how the portrait photography exhibitions transform the modern individual into a collective mind, especially from the period or memory of the War of Resistance. By analyzing the inherent attributes of portrait photography, this article situates the general effect of the media and genre, as well as the mode of narrative in this specific type of museum exhibition.

Full textAbstract:
Street photography has hardly lacked for popular cultural currency, as attested by those ubiquitous black framed prints and coffee table tomes. However, it has long been a relatively marginalized genre within photography that has seen relative critical neglect even compared to other demotic forms concerned with the everyday, such as the family portrait (Bourdieu) and snapshot (Barthes). This article seeks to sketch a series of potential intersections between street photography’s antecedent, formative and breakout phases on both sides of the Atlantic and the Situationist International’s (1957‐72) embodied practices surrounding the dérive, détournement and psychogeography more generally. Arguably, remediating street photographic practice and composition in relation to these disruptive strategies can provide a kind of corrective to the more formalistic conception of the former, as exemplified in the reification of Henri Cartier-Bresson’s famous dictum of the ‘decisive moment’. I will argue that Situationist discourse helps reframe these moments of the street as ‘situations’ in the Situationist sense, lines of flight that became explicit when the development of street photography in Europe is overlaid with that of the United States, Paris with New York. Such détournement arguably brings into view vectors between street photography and revolutionary art practices often neglected in discussions of these Dérives of the street, and gestures towards ‐ at least in potentia ‐ a kind of afterlife of post-/Situationist praxis in the practices of street photographers.
