Roger Fenton: Pasha and Bayad'ere (Getty Museum Studies on Art)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Roger Fenton's photograph Pasha and Bayad'ere is a fascinating image in its own right and is an expression of a more general Orientalist craze that grew steadily stronger during the nineteenth century in Europe. In his rich and detailed study, Baldwin explains how this image of a seated man and
a dancing woman embodies themes and motifs that can be found in the work of nineteenth-century artists from Eug'ene Delacroix to John Frederick Lewis to Alfred Lord Tennyson. He has also brought to light significant new information about the life and career of Fenton, the important Victorian
photographer best known for his photographs of the Crimean War.
