Summary:

"A survey of the life and publication history of the nineteenth-century Scottish photographer Thomas Annan"--Provided by publisher.
"During the rise of industry in 19th-century Scotland, Thomas Annan ranked as the preeminent photographer in Glasgow. Best known for his haunting images of tenements on the verge of demolition--often considered precursors of the documentary tradition in photography--he prodigiously recorded the people, the social landscape, and the built environment of Glasgow and its outskirts for more than twenty-five years. This exhibition is the first to survey his industrious career and legacy as photographer and printer. "--from Publisher
