The Haunted Gallery: Painting, Photography and Film around 1900

In the late nineteenth century, the development of a relatively new invention – the moving picture – dramatically changed visual culture.

This ground-breaking book explores the history of visual media in Britain during this key period, when the nineteenth century was closing and the twentieth just beginning.
