This study seeks to contribute to the understanding of the trajectory of photography in the newspapers of Pará, from one of the main printed forms of the country, the State of Pará (1911-1980). It is an exploratory study, based on bibliographical research, documentary and empirical data analysis, using the iconographic and iconological methods of Erwin Panofsky and Boris Kossoy. Photographs published in 1912 were observed, when one of the first journalistic photographs was found on the press, 1920, 1960 and 1980, in the months of January, April, July and October, corresponding to about 30 percent of the total editions of each year selected. The newspaper Estado do Pará began its edition with an innovative graphic presentation, highlighting, later, with the publication of photographic images and participating in the establishment of the press in the Amazon.
