Two centuries of photography
This exhibition will present the evolution from the invention of photography in 1827 by Nicéphore Niepce – made official by Daguerre in 1840 – to your smartphone.
A parallel will be drawn between digital and analog by:
- presentation of current and old equipment (old cameras, touch-up desk from 1900, typewriter and computer).
- the various techniques of photographic support (screens, paper, slides, films, glass plates) until the time of the daguerreotype (1852).
The exhibition will be complemented by presentations of photos made with ancient techniques (cyanotypes) and photos of the early twentieth century (made by one of the first local photographers).
