- Title:
- Photographic Collection of the Jila Photography Shop in Arak, Iran [Early 20th century]
- Scope & Content:
-
This fonds consists of digital images of a sample of photographs owned by the Jila Photography Shop in Arak, Iran, created as part of the project EAP001 Faces and Places in Iran: Iranian Photography at the Turn of the 20th Century.
The project reported that the Jila Photography Shop holds over 500 pieces of Iranian photography from the Qajar period, taken in and around Arak. Digital images were taken of a sample of these.
Unfortunately, information concerning the provenance, context and subjects of these photographs is unknown to the owners, and so the information presented in this catalogue is necessarily incomplete. It is thought that the photographs date from the early 20th century.

- User Conditions:

- Former Internal References:
- EAP reference: Jila
- Source of Acquisition:
- Received from the EAP001 project holder Alexandru Balesescu (Accession Record EAP001/1)
- Appraisal:
- Material in this fonds was selected for digitisation by the EAP001 project. The project also took photographs of the Jila Photography Shop; the EAP Cataloguer did not judge these to be worthy of inclusion in the catalgoue as they gave no useful contextual information, and so they have been left out of this catalogue.
- Arrangement:
- Material in this collection is arranged on the basis of information supplied by the EAP001 project; as a random sample of photographs was digitised and no detailed list was provided, the archivist has created an artificial file, which holds all the images. Further information about the way the owner organises their photographs may be gleaned from images 3 to 7, which show sample photographs within the albums that house them.
- Administrative Context:
- EAP001 Faces and Places in Iran: Iranian Photography at the Turn of the 20th Century was funded by the Endangered Archives Programme
