The word Inspiration has some extraordinary roots. Every field has its ancestors and the so called successors. The path makers – the followers and so on. When considering these aspects in Photography, which was born in late 18th century, paintings and drawings were its ancestors. The Art of Photography has been a descendant of wonderful paintings and sketches.
