Summary:
"On a winter's day in 1889, Tsimshian Chief Arthur Wellington Clah went to Hannah and Richard Maynard's
photography
studio in Victoria 'to give myself likeness.' In Images from the Likeness House, Dan Savard explores the relationship between First Peoples in
British
Columbia
, Alaska and Washington and the photographers who made images of them from the late 1850s to the 1920s. He gives examples of the great technological advancements that took place, from wet-glass-plate to nitrate-film negatives, showing the images in their original state, not cropped, corrected or retouched. This is not only an important book about
photography
, but also a visual statement about perception (and misperception), cultural change and survival. Images from the Likeness House will appeal to ethnographers, photographers, art lovers and anyone interested in the
history
of BC, Alaska and Washington. Dan Savard is senior collections manager of the Anthropology Audio Visual Collection at the Royal
British
Columbia
Museum. He has authored several academic papers and given many illustrated presentations on topics related to
photography
and First Peoples. This is his first book"--Provided by publisher.
