(Re)Assembling Reference Books and Recycling Images: The Wood Engravings of the W. & R. Chambers Firm -- Sources for Visual Material in Chambers's Encyclopaedia.The nineteenth century witnessed a series of revolutions in the production and circulation of images. From lithographs and engraved reproductions of paintings to daguerreotypes, stereoscopic views, and mass-produced sculptures, works of visual art became available in a wider range of media than ever before. But the circulation and reproduction of artworks also raised new questions about the legal rights of painters, sculptors, engravers, photographers, architects, collectors, publishers, and subjects of representation (such as sitters in paintings or photographs). Copyright and patent laws tussled with informal cultural norms and business strategies as individuals and groups attempted to exert some degree of control over these visual creations. With contributions by art historians, legal scholars, historians of publishing, and specialists of painting, photography, sculpture, and graphic arts, this rich collection of essays explores the relationship between intellectual property laws and the cultural, economic, and technological factors that transformed the pictorial landscape during the nineteenth century. This book will be valuable reading for historians of art and visual culture; legal scholars who work on the history of copyright and patent law; and literary scholars and historians who work in the field of book history. It will also resonate with anyone interested in current debates about the circulation and control of images in our digital age.Circulation and Control Art, Modern19th centuryAugmented realityLaw and legislationIntellectual property and creative abilityArt, ModernAugmented realityLaw and legislation.Intellectual property and creative ability.346.0482Delamaire Marie-StéphanieSlauter Will1977-NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910504290403321Circulation and Control2988521UNINA
