Why is there photo photography? What has it brought to mankind?

As a new art category, photography is bound to be influenced by painting in its development process. Painting is also a visual art, especially in composition, color, lines and other aspects, which will also lead to the integration of the two arts. At the same time, the application and assistance of painting artists to photography also make the two arts inseparable. In order to achieve the same status as painting,/kloc-In the second half of the 9th century, "elegant art photography" imitating pre-Raphael painting first appeared in Britain. As the American Encyclopedia of ICP Photography explains: "The pioneers of the Art Movement were1the' high art' photography of O·G· Relander and H·P· Robinson in the late 1950s. Their works were deeply influenced by the popular painting format at that time, just like later paintings, but they all tried their best to achieve the same status as other visual arts. " "Painting photography" is developed on the basis of "elegant art photography", which refers to a photography style that imitates the form and concept of painting. Because it is often the core of a salon, it is also called "salon photography". Its originator Robinson said: "The aesthetic standards of photography and painting are the same. The more faithful photography imitates painting, the closer it is to real art ".The main feature is to emphasize the importance of image composition and atmosphere to the theme, try to abandon the secular and ugly themes in reality, and even pursue the aesthetic effect of the picture through post-processing. It regards the composition, lines, tones and colors of a photo as the most important aesthetic factors, and is indifferent to the social practical significance of the picture content. Robinson 1857' s Two Roads of Life and Raylan 1858' s Disappeared are such works and are regarded as pioneers of photo photography.
