Dates and places
Dates and locations are taken from surviving print backs, envelopes, album notes and other source material when available. Uncertain information is kept broad rather than guessed.
NOTES
How the archive is handled.
Original photographs
Original photographs stay original. Layout treatment can include cropping, rotation, scaling, borders or a vintage presentation, but faces and photographic content are not regenerated.
Imagined photographs
Imagined photographs are contemporary AI-assisted artworks. They are labeled as imagined and are not represented as historical records.
Found objects
Envelopes, print backs, lab marks and album covers are shown because they are part of the photographic history, not merely decoration.
