Yours Truly, Clifford Pennock

In early 20th century Elgin Ontario, Clifford Pennock was a much beloved figure in his community. But he is also remembered today for his photographs. Using a handheld camera and glass-plate technology, he left a vast collection of images, both as an amateur and a professional photographer. He practiced at a time when camera technology was changing rapidly, and there was a great debate over what made a photograph an “artwork.” So, was Pennock a Pictorialist, a Documentarian, or a Realist photographer?
