This article proposes a methodology for the analysis of photobooks from a semiotic perspective, understanding the book as a device for sequencing images that is in itself signifying materiality, not only a vehicle for the dissemination of photographic projects. To develop the methodology, we have combined proposals from photographic analysis, film analysis and editorial and typographic design theory. The proposed methodology unfolds into seven categories -preliminary elements, contextual approach, physical qualities, expressive elements, page layout, serialization/sequencing and expression-. The methodology is applied to the photobook Ricardo Cases's Paloma al aire (2011).
