| Pictorialism
(contd.) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • | Pictorialism is
a style of photography in which the actual scene |
||||
| depicted is of
less importance than the artistic quality of the |
|||||
| image. Pictorialists
would be more concerned with the |
|||||
| aesthetics and,
sometimes, the emotional impact of the image, |
|||||
| rather than
what actually was in front of their camera. |
