Název v původním jazyce

Jan (Johann) Böhm (1895–1952) and his view of chemical laboratories in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s through the eyes of an amateur photographer

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Böhm had shown a creative approach to photography since his early stay in Germany, as evidenced by his pho­tograph of the Berlin laboratories. Böhm was not the only Czech chemist who pursued photography during his life­time – there were others such as Karel Kruis, Karel Šmirous, Přemysl Koblic, and Jan Lauschman. In the past, chemists were very close to photography. Their knowledge enabled Figure 2 A scene from a laboratory at the German University, Prague. Digitized 9 × 12 cm, negative on glass plate, about 1920. (National Technical Museum Archive, Jan Böhm, fond, no. 869)n hem to use the photography process properties to the maximum and therefore achieved better results than photographers who lacked chemical education. During the 1920s–1940s, the quality of photographic materials mostly limited the possibilities of photography. Glass plates and films had poor sensitivity to light and rather coarse film grain, which resulted in insufficient image sharpness. In order to obtain positives without the film grain structure and with tolerable sharpness, large­format negative material (and devices) was required. Under poor lighting conditions, one had to use a tripod for taking pictures.
