Julia Luudens
1954
Julia Luudens was one of the first ‘post-modern’ photographers at the end of last century that staged her photographs. As an autodidact, she played no role in the world of photography and worked completely intuitively. That may explain why her work is so different from other photography of the seventies.

Pep Jansen
1931 - 1969
Pep Jansen probably is the only dedicated party photographer in the history of Dutch photography. His intimate and complex images breathe the Amsterdam party atmosphere of the sixties.

Elbertus Donkerwolk
1810 - 1859
One of the most underrated figures in Dutch history may well be the hairdresser/photographer/entrepreneur Elbertus Donkerwolk. This charming figure excelled in many areas and he was one of the first known portrait photographers in the Netherlands: his earliest successful recordings date from 1842! The fact that his name is now forgotten may perhaps be due to the fact that he was above all a hairdresser.

Jos de Munk
1856 - 1923
The albumen prints shown here, I found on the street in a shoebox with old photos. They were put there to be taken away as trash. Through the owners of the pictures, I managed to trace their creator: Jos de Munk, tobacco seller from Rotterdam. These are most likely the only surviving photographs of this quiet man, who, in his spare time, appears to have been a passionate amateur naturalist and photographer.
