Photographic-documentary account of rural characters in three times : Pampa and Northwest, Argentine republic between the end of XIX and early XX

Abstract

Resumen: Based on the general theory of the image, this paper presents the story that three photographs transmit from three axes that cross them: the history of the photographers who produced them, the social, political and economic context in which they arise and the photographic resources and processes available between the end of the s. XIX and early s. XX.1 For this, three photographers who represent different moments and edges of that history and experiences in our two study regions are analyzed: Esteban Gonnet, Francisco Ayerza and Salvador Debenedetti
