The Wonderful World of Albert Kahn - The Balkans - Greece - Thessaloniki Port

Albert Kahn Museum: From the autochrome to the Collection Digigraphie®

The Albert Kahn museum is a Digigraphie® convert. It was one of the first museums to produce and exhibit Digigraphies from its collection. Albert Kahn, a French banker and philanthropist, aspired to a peaceful world in which understanding and knowledge of other cultures would end intolerance. From 1909 to 1931 he hired photographers and sent them around the world taking colour pictures, building his "Archive of the Planet": Today, the collection of 72,000 colour negative plates, the largest in the world, provides a "clear picture of the evolution of the planet". To share and distribute this unique heritage, the Albert Kahn museum has chosen to go digital and offers Digigraphies to its visitors. Epson technology is reviving these historic plates.
