- Photomontage - Eugène Appert used this technique during the Paris Commune of 1871 to create political propaganda.
- Collage - The design work of Alexander Rodchenko in Russian books and magazines of the 1930s merged photographs with graphics and typography.
- Assemblage - Man Ray combined photographs with other objects and media to create artworks.
