In 1993 the city of Cologne acquired the collection of the Hamburg photographer, Robert Lebeck. It is arguably one of the most comprehensive and high quality private collections of photography. Over 10,000 individual photographs represent the beginnings of a medium that has influenced the perception of the world over the last 150 years. This volume is the catalogue to accompany the exhibition of Lebeck's work in Cologne and includes a 300 plate cross section of the history of photography, from the inventions of Daguerrotype and Kalotype to the snapshot photography of 1900.
