Gli Alinari
Contents.Founding In 1852, Leopoldo Alinari founded a photographic studio. His brothers Giuseppe and Romualdo joined him two years later to establish Fratelli Alinari Fotografi Editori, a photographic workshop dedicated initially to the documentation of notable Italian paintings, sculptures, and architecture.
They subsequently expanded the scope of their photographic project to include the towns and landscapes of Italy, as well as and images of national costume. The brothers achieved recognition for the quality of their work, and by 1860 their portrait subjects included the Italian royal family. Today It is the oldest foundation in the world still active in the field of photography, and more generally in the sphere of the image and communication.Today Alinari is the guardian of a photographic corpus which includes a patrimony of its own of over 5,500,000 pictures, historical and contemporary, ranging from vintage prints, glass plate negatives to film and fotocolors, and is responsible for the management of an ongoing program of exhibitions and publishing. It can supply iconographical research services and manages both Italian and foreign photographic archives, constantly increasing its 'image-bank', in part already on and now also on digital supports which will be available for consultation on-line.
