Description
Although Albania doesn t appear in World histories of photography, this Balkan nation still has a unique heritage. This book presents an overview of a century of outstanding images that are evocative of a country at the of the East and the West. The Albanian history of photography began with the incredible adventure of an Italian, Pietro Marubi. He was a Garibaldian who found refuge in Albania and settled in Shkodra, the town where he opened the country s first photographic studio in 1858. Three generations would eventually succeed him. The entire Albanian society came to pose in front of the painted backgrounds of the Marubi dynasty. Within a century, the Marubis accumulated more than 120 000 negatives.
