An overview by Julián Monge-Nájera
As a teacher of scientific photography at the University of Costa Rica I was not satisfied with any specific book about the history of photography and decided to make my own anthology with what I believed were the very best chapters of every book.
This website is a very brief summary of that teaching material. It offers a relatively extended timeline (from the year 350 BC to the year 2004) and covers the history of "color", "black and white" and "digital" photography.
A selection of historically important photographs to illustrate the history of photography is also included.
