- Lot Description
Giacomo Brogi (1822 Florence - 1881 ibid.): Interior of the Milan Cathedral View through the central nave to the choir, late 19th century, photograph of a painting, c. 1890, albumen paper print
Technique: albumen paper print, mounted on Cardboard
Inscription: Inscribed at the bottom centre of the cardboard. Giacomo BROGI founded a photography studio in Florence in 1860, where he developed exclusive portraits as well as reproductions of works of art. For photo expeditions he travelled to the Middle and Near East, including Palestine and Egypt. In 1869, he presented Pope Pius IX with an album of photographs from Palestine. The same gift to King Vittorio Emanuele and Umberto I earned him the title of court photographer in 1878. In Italy, he was in competition with the Alinari brothers in Florence and Giorgio Sommer and Giorgio Conrad in Naples.
Date: c. 1890
Size: Cardboard: 36,8 cm x 30,6 cm (14,5 x 12 in), Depiction: 24,2 cm x 18,6 cm (9,5 x 7,3 in)
Description: Lower left with embossed stamp "Brogi". Original photograph with high sharpness of detail. An early testimony of travel photography. Around the middle of the 19th century, more and more tourists from middle-class circles travelled to Italy. At that time, photographs could only be taken with a great deal of time and expensive, unwieldy equipment. This made many tourists all the more grateful for the work of the professional photographer's studios on site to bring back a souvenir from afar for those who stayed at home or to collect as souvenirs. Famous photographers such as Carlo Naya, Giorgio Sommer or the Alinari brothers photographed the most famous sights of their home cities and went on journeys themselves to photograph the most popular destinations of their clients and offer them as albumen prints. Ancient art treasures were also photographed and offered to travellers. The high-quality photographs of sculptures and frescoes continued to make an important contribution to documenting art treasures and making them accessible to scholars from all over Europe, who previously had to rely on tracings or engravings if they could not view the original for themselves.
