The George Eastman Museum is located in Rochester, New York, on the estate of George Eastman, the pioneer of popular photography and motion picture film. Founded in 1947 as an independent nonprofit institution, it is the world’s oldest photography museum and one of the oldest film archives. The museum holds unparalleled collections—encompassing several million objects—in the fields of photography, cinema, and photographic and cinematographic technology, and photographically illustrated books. The institution is also a longtime leader in film preservation and photographic conservation. There is always something new and different to engage, educate, or entertain you at the Eastman Museum:

    It's amazing how the color makes them seem so much more identifiable...so much more modern. Wow. :)

    In 1915 my grandmother was 10 years old. She died at 100 in 2005. Photos like this make me more aware of what a huge life span that is. The changes happening in a hundred years... being there to live through it. Thanks for posting this lovely document.

    Does the title really begin “Le” and not with “La” (which would be grammatically correct)?
  • Jessica Johnston said:
    This photograph is part of an album that has handwritten captions. I will look and see if it is indeed a La rather than a Le. Thanks!
  • Enric Martinez said:
    Really interesting as an early example of photography as art.
  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    Is this photograph also attributed to Charles Hugo as well as Auguste Vacquerie?
