Thanks Angelo. I'm one of those that looks at the earliest efforts with cameras as having been about Documentary. It became an intentional art form much later once the medium began to become more understood and, arguably, accessible.

Here's an additional link from the National Archives for teachers on how to approach Lewis Hine's Child Labour project. It includes links to several of the images as well.
