Visual Resources
Special Issue on Visual Collections as Historical Evidence
This special issue of Visual Resources draws together articles from academics and curators to explore how the two disciplines can best collaborate in locating, understanding and analysing visual collections. Derived from papers delivered at the conference 'Getting the Picture: using visual collections as historical evidence' held in Manchester, England, in 2006, the articles consider how to use images in their historical context. The diverse themes drawn on include Irish church architecture; banners and nineteenth-century popular politics; commercial advertising during the Second World War; products and architecture of the British Co-operative movement in the twentieth century; and imagery adopted by the British political parties during the 'Thatcher years'.
