Abstract

The invention of photography in 1839 led to a revolution in visual culture: photography both portrayed and created the modern world. For the first time, it was possible to depict and unlock every facet of that world. Photography secured a position in every field: in science, the arts, daily life and in the reporting of what was happening in the world. Presenting a selection of more than 300 photographs from the large and important collection of the Rijksmuseum, 'New Realities' provides an impressive overview of the international development of photography. Major highlights include the earliest travel photos, motion studies by Eadweard Muybridge, advertising photography, portraits, scenes from everyday life, the earliest photograph taken in Suriname and amazing shots that were made by microscope and telescope. Exhibition: Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (16.06.-17.09.2017).

Abstract

This publication focuses on one of the most compelling examples of the eighteenth-century fascination with portraits of authors: the Panpoëticon Batavûm, a collection of portraits of Dutch writers, past and present, which was established around the turn of the eighteenth century. By examining the tangible objects in this collection, using an interdisciplinary approach that combines cultural history with relevant notions from the fields of both art history and literary history, this publication contributes to more general discussions about authorship in the early modern period, while revealing the story of these unique and largely overlooked early modern portraits of writers.

Abstract

By the end of the nineteenth century, people began to record their daily lives using small, handheld cameras. This made photography more direct, faster, and dynamic. The similarity with our time, in which more and more people are taking photographs, is striking. In this publication, Mattie Boom describes the rise of amateur photography in the Netherlands: the photographers, the photographs, the albums, the key figures, and the backgrounds. At the time, amateur photography was mainly a pastime for the wealthy: upper-class gentlemen, gentlewomen and even the young Queen Wilhelmina. Especially young entrepreneurs, however, set out to bring photography to the general public. Exhibition: Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (15.02.-10.06.2019).
