- The Roman Photographic School takes us back to the early days of Italian photography by introducing us to the group that met at the Caffé Greco in Rome. This group of an engraver, an architect and several painters socialized together between 1847-1855 and this is a rare opportunity to see photographs kindly provided by a collector.
- Mirrors takes us through how photographers have used mirrors and in many ways the resulting images are a reflection of the time they were taken.
