Art & Design Site: George Eastman House - Photography


American site including a collection of late 19th and early 20th century black and white photographs. Limited use as an image bank for period images but of little value to serious photography students. Most of the material on this site is concerned with movie-making and may be more useful to film or media studies students.
It includes:

  • British and French photographs
  • Images of the American West
  • Overview of visually impressive 20th century movies

More specific information about photographers to be found on History of Photography site although images are difficult to access.
