Description: "This volume is the first comprehensive study of homoeroticism and male homosexuality in the history of photography. Author Pierre Borhan provides a fast-paced overviw of the principal themes of nineteenth- and twentieth-century homoerotic photography." "Man to Man puts photography made by, for, and of homosexuals into historical perspective. Nearly 350 works, those both well recognized and many unpublished, permit us to follow the thematic and aesthetic developments of amateur as well as professional photographers who preceded or reflected the transformations of norms."--Jacket.
