Here’s a cool looking exhibition I came across thanks to Marc Gauthier. The official name I believe is Québec City and its Photographers, 1850-1908. The Yves Beauregard Collection. From Marc’s site:
This exhibition offers a selection of approximately 400 photographs, ambrotypes, tintypes and other printing processes of light on a support.
There’s portraits, panaromic views, stereoscopes (3D viewers for old photos), and of course information about the photos and the subjects of the photos. I get the impression from reading the post and looking at Marc’s about page that he’s probably seen better museums. I haven’t been to too many museums myself though and I’m still pretty new so $15 would be a bargain to me. It’s a bummer for me because it’s in Canada, but maybe someone reading this lives nearby and would like to check it out. Here’s where it’s located. Please visit Marc’s review of Québec City and its Photographers for more info.
