Tender Violence: Domestic Visions in an Age of U.S. Imperialism Paperback - 2000
by Laura Wexler
From the jacket flap
Laura Wexler presents an incisive analysis of how the first American female photojournalists contributed to a "domestic vision" that reinforced the imperialism and racism of turn-of-the-century America. The images vary from Jessie Tarbox Beals' s pictures of the World's Fair of 1904 in St. Louis to Alice Austen's photos of immigrants at Ellis Island. Wexler also examines other women photographers of this period including Gertrude Kasebier, Frances Benjamin Johnston, and the Gerhard sisters.

Laura Wexler presents an incisive analysis of how the first American female photojournalists contributed to a "domestic vision" that reinforced the imperialism and racism of turn-of-the-century America. These women photographers, white and middle class, constructed images of war disguised as peace through a mechanism Wexler calls the "averted eye," which had its origins in the private domain of family photography.Wexler examines the work of Frances Benjamin Johnston, Gertrude Kasebier, Alice Austen, the Gerhard sisters, and Jessie Tarbox Beals. The book includes more than 150 photographs taken between 1898 and 1904, such as photos Johnston took aboard Admiral Dewey's flagship as it returned home from conquering Manila, Austen's photos of immigrants at Ellis Island, and Beals's images of the St. Louis World's Fair of 1904.
