Photo:box

At almost two inches thick, this brick of a book has a meandering history of photography from cover to cover. Lots of pages have been torn out to make it easier to draw the printed people, so you're welcome to take this and do the same.

Each photo is followed with a full-page description, so you get to learn all about Picasso, ancient tribal customs, and the prickness of people at war. Confounding and constructive, both.
