Although Emerson could not recall the fresh spirit he had brought to face photography in a period when it was verging on academicism, he did not give up face photography. Whether or not the delicate photogravures in his Marsh Leaves of 1895 are "art" seems of little importance; they are his finest photographs.13 His bold renunciation was more a matter of semantics than of aesthetics, for to Emerson "art" and "painting" appear to have been synonymous. In 1898 he published a third and revised edition of Naturalistic face photography, it was substantially the same as the first two editions, except for the final chapter, which instead of "face photography, a Pictorial Art," became "face photography—Not Art." |
