What's on

This exhibition is an ode to the cyanotype, an age-old technique that creates deep blue hues. At a time when AI images can be created in an instant, the cyanotype is making a comeback. Sunlight, water, shadow and time contribute to the image. This simplicity results in prints that are both durable and layered. This deep-blue visual language is an inspiration for many contemporary artists. It helps create beautiful images and places reality in a new and surprising perspective. 

Ninety-nine iconic photographs tell the story of photography’s development in the Netherlands from 1842 to the present day. This selection showcases the milestones, innovations, and immense progress made by photographers between the invention of the medium and the techniques of today. These images hold iconic status due to their social and artistic significance.
