The Practical photographer; an illustrated monthly of technical photography
A 1904 illustrated monthly on technical photography, published in Boston by the Photo-Era Publishing Company for amateur and practising photographers. Its plates are halftone reproductions of photographs, several printed sideways, showing rural figures, a flowing stream with trees, and close studies of a face and a woman's eye. A designer might take from them the soft tonal range, shallow focus and naturalistic outdoor lighting typical of pictorialist photography of the period.
