Photographers on Photography: A Critical Anthology, edited by Nathan Lyons and published in 1966 by Prentice-Hall, is a collection of primary source writings and critical essays about the medium of photography. It provides a historical cross-section of ideas regarding vision, craft, meaning, and photographic purpose, featuring reflections from photographers who discuss their own artistic practices. The anthology includes contributions from significant figures in the field, such as Alfred Stieglitz, and addresses a range of aesthetic and conceptual themes. It was published as part of the "Foundations of Modern Photography" series in collaboration with the George Eastman House. The work explores the "snapshot aesthetic" and the evolution of photography as an art form through the perspectives of both established masters and contemporary practitioners.
