Giorgio Sommer (1834 Frankfurt on the Main - 1914 Naples): View of the magnificent Palazzo Borromeo on Isola Bella, Lake Maggiore, c. 1880, albumen paper print Technique: albumen paper print, mounted on Cardboard Inscription: At the lower part signed in the printing plate: "7078. Lago Maggiore. Isola Bella | G. Sommer - Napoli". Date: c. 1880 Description: Historical impression from Italy. The photograph shows the stepped garden terrace of the Renaissance palace Palazzo Borromeo on the Isola Bella. Original photograph with high detail sharpness. An early example of travel photography. Around the middle of the 19th century, more and more tourists from bourgeois circles travelled to Italy. At that time, photographs could only be taken at great expense in terms of time and with expensive, unwieldy equipment. This made many tourists all the more grateful for the work of the professional photographer's studios on site, so that they could bring back a souvenir from their holiday home or collect them as mementos. Famous photographers such as Carlo Naya, Giorgio Sommer and the Alinari brothers photographed the most famous sights in their home cities and travelled themselves to photograph their customers' favourite destinations and offer them as albumen prints. Ancient art treasures were also photographed and offered to travellers. The high-quality photographs of sculptures and frescoes continued to make an important contribution to documenting the art treasures and making them accessible to scholars from all over Europe, who previously had to rely on copies or engravings if they were unable to view the original themselves.
