Summary:
Traces of India: Photography, Architecture, and the Politics of Representation, 1850–1900 investigates the different cultural roles played by photographs of Indian architecture from the second half of the nineteenth century. Although picturesque views, scientific records of an architectural past, political memorials, travel mementos, and textbook vignettes are the obvious purposes of these images, Traces of India offers a deeper interpretation. Twelve essays show how photographs of architecture reveal the ways in which the practice of image making is aligned with the purposes of power, the presumptions accompanying the encounter with the unfamiliar, and the forces shaping colonial India. The book is published in conjunction with the 2003 CCA exhibition Traces of India: Photography, Architecture, and the Politics of Representation.

Through a series of case studies, including the construction of the Bloor Viaduct, civic beautification plans, urban reform in “the Ward,” immigration and citizenship, and Goss’s portrait photography, Bassnett exposes how photographs were at the heart of debates over what the city should look like, how it should operate, and under what conditions it was appropriate for people to live.

Summary:
How do you find out about historic buildings and places? A good place to start is with visual evidence. Original drawings, topographical views, surveys, maps, photographs, and other historic visual sources help to support an understanding of how a building or location appears the way it does today. Interpreting such material requires knowledge of historic design and mapping conventions, the place of the drawings in the construction process, the methods and techniques used to create engraved or topographical views, and the equipment and processes used in photography at particular times. The authors of this book explain the provenance, purpose, and terminology of a range of visual sources from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, and explore how they can help—or sometimes hinder—an understanding of the original form and subsequent changes to a building, site, or landscape.
