The Family and Friends of Vojta Náprstek. A Rare Portrait Collection from the Funds of the Náprstek Museum
Original language description
The article introduces a collection of thirty three predominantly daguerreotypes deposited in the collection department of the Náprstek Museum. They were made in the period from the end of the 1840s to the 1860s, partly in Europe and partly in the United States of America, as a private collection of Vojta Náprstek and his family. The earliest one originates from 1848 and displays Vojta Náprstek wearing a redingote of the revolutionary Student Legion. With one exception, the portraits present family and friends of the collection owner. What makes the collection very interesting and frequently used by experts and the media is the fact that it includes, among others, two portraits of Božena Němcová. The first part of the article deals with the history of the collection and the portrayed persons. The second, technical part presents the history of the origin and development of the employed photographic techniques and with the identification and specification of the degradation effects.
