Shadows in Walkway

Jan Lauschmann · 1926 · gelatin silver print ·  Accession ID  2025.100.67

This blurry, sepia-toned photograph shows a view of a tree-lined path in a park. The photograph is taken from a low angle, looking down the path, which extends into the distance. Closer to us, the path is empty, but further along, there are people visible, including one person pushing a stroller. The people are blurred and indistinct. The path is bordered by grass and trees, with branches forming a canopy overhead. Light filters through the leaves, creating shadows.

Park Scene

Jan Lauschmann · c. 1930 · gelatin silver print ·  Accession ID  2025.100.70

This image shows an aerial view of a cluster of old rooftops, likely in a historical city area. The rooftops have weathered tiles, chimneys, and attic windows, creating a sense of depth. The horizon is obscured by more rooftops, and the color palette is sepia-toned with browns and yellows, giving it an old-world feel. The scene conveys a serene and timeless urban setting.
