Abstract [en]

The goal of the thesis is to investigate the importance of photographic portraits of sculptors at the turn of 1900 in history of sculpture, photography and portrait art. Impact of the portrait of sculptor in painting on the photographic portrait of sculptor and other way around is analyzed in the thesis. Novelties that photographic portraits of sculptors introduced to representation of sculptors are considered. The thesis explores the representation of women sculptors in photographic portraits and photographers’ styles. The question about how and in what context photographic portraits of sculptors can be used is discussed. The thesis has a connection to digital humanities, since Google Images and Google Lens were used to identify sculptures in some portraits, and digital collection of portraits of sculptors was created.
