Notes

edit
  1. ^ Talbot's 1835 photograph has also been referred to as Lacock Oriel Window (Latticed Window)[3] or simply Latticed Window.[4]
  2. ^ Also known as Le Noyé (lit. 'The drowned man').
  3. ^ The Metropolitan Museum of Art dates their copy of Talbot's Haystack as "probably 1841".[15] The National Gallery of Canada dates it to April 1844.[16]
  4. ^ Robert Howlett's image is referred to as Isambard Kingdom Brunel before the Launch of the Leviathan in The Oxford Companion to the Photograph.
  5. ^ Also titled Cotton Mill Girl. The collection item for the Library of Congress gives a much longer title that includes commentary from the photographer: A little spinner in the Mollahan Mills, Newberry, S.C. She was tending her "sides" like a veteran, but after I took the photo, the overseer came up and said in an apologetic tone that was pathetic, "She just happened in." Then a moment later he repeated the information. The mills appear to be full of youngsters that "just happened in," or " are helping sister." Dec. 3, 08. Witness Sara R. Hine. Location: Newberry, South Carolina.[69]
  6. ^ Also titled Grand Prix of the Automobile Club de France, 1912 or Automobile Delage, Grand Prix de l'Automobile-Club de France, Le Tréport, 26 juin 1912 Sources including the Oxford University Press, erronously claimed this photograph to be taken in 1912 (as dated by Lartique himself later) when it took place in 1913. The driver, identified as René Croquet, raced as No. 20 in 1912; he was driving a Théophile Schneider in both races, neither in a Delage. There was no No. 6 in the 1912 race.
  7. ^ Huynh Cong "Nick" Ut's 1972 Napalm attack is also referred to as The Terror of War, Phan Thị Kim Phúc, or Vietnam children after napalm attack.
