Helmut Gernsheim (1913-1995) gilt als Pionier der Fotogeschichte, denn sehr früh erkannte er die Fotografie als autonomes künstlerisches Medium und widmete sich mit großer Kennerschaft ihrer wissenschaftlichen Erforschung. 1945 legte er den Grundstein zu der inzwischen weltberühmten Gernsheim Collection: Er entdeckte vergessene Meisterwerke aus der Frühgeschichte der Fotografie und spürte das älteste erhaltene fotografische Bild von 1826/27 auf. Seit diesem sensationellen Fund gilt Nicéphore Niépce und nicht Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre als der Erfinder der Fotografie. Bereits seit Anfang der fünfziger Jahre organisierte er Fotoausstellungen; 1955 erschien sein monumentales Hauptwerk Geschichte der Photographie, das in viele Sprachen übersetzt wurde. Seit 2002 ist der zeitgenössische Teil der Gernsheim-Fotosammlung, dazu seine eigenen Fotos, der gesamte Nachlass sowie seine umfangreiche Bibliothek in den Mannheimer Reiss-Engelhorn-Museen beheimatet. Zum 90. Geburtstag von Helmut Gernsheim erscheint dieses Buch über sein Werk als Fotohistoriker, Sammler und Fotograf, das einen einzigartigen Blick auf die Fotografie des 20. Jahrhunderts und eine wertvolle Basis für internationale Forschungen zur Fotogeschichte bietet.

Works but will Dry Out Your Skin
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I am a swim instructor at an outdoor pool and this stuff DOES work. I can apply it at the beginning of a 5 hour shift and while I have experienced light tanning it has protected against burning completely without reapplication. The white cast is significant though I don't mind it aesthetically, I know its there for protection . It does rub off on things though so consider yourself warned. Major Con: it is incredibly drying, and the soap needed to scrub it off is A LOT. That coupled with chlorine is a lot for my skin . Still on my sunscreen journey.

I couldn’t put this book down!!
Format: Paperback
I couldn’t put this book down! My daughter & I stayed in a bed-n- breakfast in Lochcarran on our trip to Scotland right before the COVID pandemic. Not only is the story a fun cozy, whodunnit, but I could visualize the geography while reading. I love the Scottish Highlands & Dee describes them perfectly in this book. Can’t wait to read the next book..it should arrive today!!

Good book
Format: Audiobook
Book was interesting but had a hard time with the Scottish accent. Plus I have hearing problems so that may have been part of the issue too.

Pronunciation matters, and I can't finish this book.
Format: Audiobook
I listen almost exclusively to books set in Scotland & Ireland, so I'm very familiar with the accents and find them incredibly charming. That said, the name pronunciation really irritated me. The main character is Ally, but they are not pronouncing it to rhyme with Sally. It sounds more like they are separating it into two words- All E. After investing hours into the audiobook and trying to not let it bother me, they introduce an American character, Mamie, which should rhyme with "maybe", but NO- they call her Mommy! It is very confusing- I kept thinking a new character was introduced who was a parent. Nope. I give up. I don't think I can finish listening to this. I feel like I'm being pranked.
