Oscar Gustav Rejlander - The Father of Art Photography - By: Annette Labedzki, 2009-04-26

Oscar Rejlander started working as a portraitist at Wolverhampton, in approximately 1846. Rejlander learned the skills of photography in 1850, to facilitate his painting techniques and produced many works, including the most famous "The Two Ways of Life" (1857). This work was meticulously printed from 32 glass negatives. Portraiture and genre works were a couple of key dimensions of Rejlander's works.
