The photographic library owned by Briganti guards a collection of photos made with printing techniques which go back to the Nineteenth and Twentieth century. Those photos refer to a time when the use of increasingly advanced methods was spreading the photographic technique. Among the works an anthology of three hundreds photos stands out thanks to their extraordinary size (450x300 mm and above) and their different techniques such as albumen prints, silver bromide, silver gelatin. Another technique worth to mention is the carbon print which is known to ensure the inalterability of the pictures whilst creating a “relief effect”. During the 1880s, great sized photographs became were highly sought after by scholars and collectors, such as the photograph of Madonna con bambino e San Giovannino (work preserved at the Cleveland Museum, Ohio). This painting attributed to Botticelli and workshop shows various re-paintings then removed during the restoration of the Twentieth century.
