The First Snapshots

At Home and Abroad

The exhibition presents pioneering Kodak snapshots from the 1880 and 1890s. Both visually inventive and playful, these circular-format images portray American families in both domestic settings and on world travels. Curated by Christopher Phillips and George Eastman House.
