| book description |

In 1839, photography was invented almost simultaneously in France and England, quickly finding fertile ground in Belgium â€“ a young nation established in 1830. Positioned at the crossroads of Europe, Belgium became a hub for technological innovation, where photography flourished as both an art form and a means of self-representation. Driven by a wealthy middle class eager to capture its image, as well as strong support from the government, industry, and financial sectors, photography rapidly spread across the country. This book explores Belgiumâ€™s pivotal role in the early development of photography, offering a fascinating look at how a new medium shaped a nationâ€™s identity. Featuring numerous nostalgic photographs by FranÃ§ois Braga & Joseph Pelizzaro, Guillaume Claine, Joseph Ernest Buschmann, William Henry Fox Talbot, among others. Text in English and Dutch.
