The First Panoramas is a cultural history of the first three decades of the panorama, a three-hundred-sixty-degree visual medium patented by the British artist Robert Barker in 1787. Denise Blake Oleksijczuk demonstrates the complexity of the panoramas' history and cultural impact, exploring specific exhibits and reconstructing the relationships between the paintings, their accompanying printed guides, and their different audiences.
