This is a stunning exploration of the life and works of Frederick H Evans, one of the world's finest architectural photographers. This magnificently illustrated volume focuses on the life and work of noted British photographer Frederick H. Evans (1853-1943). Initially a bookseller in London, Evans began pursuing photography in the 1880s. His platinum prints of medieval cathedrals in England and France are among the most renowned architectural images in photographic history. Despite Evans' undeniably important contribution to the field of photography, this is the first significant publication of his work for more than 17 years and is published to coincide with an exhibition of his prints at the J. Paul Getty Museum between February and June 2010.
