Samenvatting
In the early 1850s the British Museum made their first response
to repeated requests from historians for photographic records of
the Museum's treasures to be made available to the world of
scholarship. So were layed down the foundations of a massive
worldwide industry, making these treasures accessible to all. In
1853 Fenton got a contract with the Museum, which lasted for six
years. The author uses the reports and letters, which the Museum
filed away meticulously, to tell the story of one of the real
business ventures between a national institution and a freelance
photographer.
