Bullock&#8217;s work is the essence of pictorial photography, or simply pictorialism: the focus on composition rather than a true representation of reality. His work can however provide a look at his surroundings in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.&nbsp;Bullock&#8217;s work focused on rural life and the countryside, to which he often traveled, but also showcased his family and friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This exhibit offers an overview of Bullock&#8217;s work spanning over four decades and has been divided into three sections: scenes of rural life, portraits of family and friends, and landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entire collection, which contains 1,154 images, is available in UMBC Special Collections at the Albin O. Kuhn (AOK) Library.&nbsp; A full digital collection is forthcoming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To navigate within the exhibit, use the main menu along the top of the page.
