„Let us manfully hold truths, rights...“ Photographic album of personalities from the Bohuslav Dušek Collection in the Archives of the National Museum
One of the traces of Bohuslav Dušek’s extensive collecting and patronage activities is the archival collection stored in the National Museum Archives. It includes (under the inventory number 1744) a photographic album containing portrait photographs (business card format) of important personalities of Czech political, cultural and public life in the second half of the 19th century. The collection of photographs is both an important iconographic source for the history of Czech society in the 19th century and a very interesting insight into the production of important photographic studios of the time. Apart from the content analysis of the photographic album (represented photographic studios, personalities, the role of the photographic album in society), attention is also paid to the question of the physical condition of the album as an artefact forming part of the national cultural heritage.
