Sir David
Brewster, a Scottish scientist, was one of the first to
|
|
|
make pinhole
photographs, in the 1850s. He also coined the
|
|
|
very word "pinhole”.

By the late
1880s the Impressionist movement in painting was
|
|
a certain
influence on photography. Different schools or
|
|
|
tendencies
developed in photography.
|
|
|

The "old
school" believed in sharp focus and good lenses; the
|
|
|
"new
school", the "pictorialists",
|
|
|
tried to
achieve the atmospheric
|
|
|
qualities of
paintings. Some of the
|
|
|
pictorialists
experimented with
|
|
|
pinhole
photography.
