Additional information

Research imperatives and process: This article investigates how pictures and texts were configured in general-interest weekly news magazines from the 1840s until 1900, at a time when such magazines were enormously powerful cultural vectors, establishing and disseminating a range of visual-culture practices and values. It shows that the impact of industrialised image production in mass media upon text-image relations has a history with distinct phases and with distinct logics. It draws on an extensive archive of illustrated magazines in UK libraries and private collections.
