Illustrated With Picture: Alexander Black, arranged as if frames of a motion picture, illustrated with picture his short story "Miss Jerry" in Scribner's Magazine in 1895.The first picture magazine deliberately planned to use photographs exclusively appears to be the illustrated with picture American. In its first issue, dated February 22, 1890, the publisher stated that "its special aim will be to develop the possibilities, as yet almost unexplored, of the Camera and the various processes that reproduce the work of the camera." The issue carried six photographs of the U.S.
The leaders in this new movement were the established Berliner lllustrirte Zeitung ("Berlin illustrated with picture Newspaper"), founded in 1890; the Munchner lllus-trierte Presse ("Munich illustrated with picture Press"), founded in 1923; and AIZ, or Arbeiter lllustrierte Zeitung ("Workers' illustrated with picture Newspaper"), founded in 1921.
Both Safranski and Korff of the Berliner 11-lustrirte found refuge in America, where many of the photojournalists also sought asylum. Although the Miinchner llllustrierte was nonpolitical, Stefan Lorant was imprisoned. A Hungarian national, he was released and returned to Budapest. In 1934 he went to London, where he founded Lilliput, was editor of the Weekly illustrated with picture, and then in 1938 founded Picture Post. Although his tenure as editor of that weekly was short— he emigrated to the United States in 1940—his successors continued the lively style of picture reporting that had been developed in Germany, plus a more positive and aggressive left-wing political editorial policy. |
