The historian of photography Helmut Gernsheim (1913-1995) owned
the largest photography collection in the world. For the first time
in half a century, both its sections are reunited in an exhibition
catalog: the historical part, housed in the Harry Ransom Center at
the University of Texas, Austin, and the contemporary collection in
the Reiss-Engelhorn-Museen, Mannheim, Germany. With roughly 220
outstanding photographs, the catalog affords unprecedented insights
into the matchless history of the Gernsheim Collection as well as a
fascinating overview of the history of photography, beginning with
the world's first photographic image by Joseph Nicephore Niepce in
1826.
