Описание: Marjorie Doggetts Singapore, an evocative interplay of photos and texts, forms a tribute to a pioneer woman photographer, Marjorie Doggett. From 1954-57, camera in hand, she roamed Singapores colonial precincts, its port and river, the characteristic ethnic areas and elsewhere. Mind and eye aligned, and aware of the increasing pace of development, Doggett captured for posterity the cityscape in images and with historical texts.Her work appeared in Characters of Light, the first photo book to fully portray Singapores urban setting and architecture. Published in 1957, and reissued in 1985, the book was a pioneer: in its depiction of Singapores city and as the first local photographic book by a woman. This work draws on those two publications, both long out of print. In this book, Marjorie Doggetts photos are enriched by Edward Stokes historical and personal texts.Born in England, Doggett was a self-taught photographer. She had arrived in Singapore in early 1947 with her future husband. In 1962 they became citizens of Singapore, their lifetime home. The photos and narrative in Marjorie Doggetts Singapore offer an entirely new presentation. Half of the books images are hitherto unpublished. The texts and photos portray Singapore the place, through the prism of Doggetts life, inspiration and methods. Marjorie Doggett had clear views concerning the preservation of buildings, and in later years her seminal book contributed significantly to the preservation of Singapores historic architecture.
