Published in conjunction with a world-touring photographic exhibition, this handsome volume chronicles the evolution of advertising photography from straightforward 19th century product images, to present-day work by Bert Stern, Henry Wolf, Irving Penn and others who create an entire advertisement in a single sophisticated photograph.

Sobieszek, curator of the exhibit, has had a difficult task, since much of the original material, not considered ``art,'' was lost or destroyed. Photography Book Club alternate. --
