Samenvatting
In reply to an earlier published article by Harley in 'History
of Photography' (1988, XII/4, oct./dec.) on the philosophical
contents of the so-called Tartan Album. The author denunciates
that philosophical claim by the following statement: ""The
little album is a remarkable, triumphant achievement, the result
of two years' desperation, wrestling with faulty chemicals and
paper until, finally and astonishingly, the alchemy worked -
paper photography in Scotland. The Adamson's photographs were a
chemical succes, not a high-flown philosophical failure''.
