Abstract

The article considers the role of museum exhibits in the form of photographic material of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries in the history of Barnaul local lore. Individual copies of photographs can help to create a more complete picture of the personalities who lived and worked in the city at the turn of the century, as well as about the masters of photography and their studios in different cities of the Tomsk province, whose activities are noted in a number of historical sources. The task of the study was to compile a general description of the photographic collection for its further study. The copies of photographs that have come to the museum, but do not belong to the Barnaul photo salons, indicate the development of social ties between the cities of Siberia. The author gives a generalized class characteristic for representatives of the photo business at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, and also identifies the main stylistic features that distinguish some specific master photographers. The study identified links between individual historical figures and activities in the region and beyond and resulted in the course for further study of the material. Keywords: history, LOCAL history, archive, city history, photo history, historical connections
