Visit to George Eastman Museum


Spot the elephant trunk!

On Jan. 15th, last Friday, we visited the George Eastman Museum and enjoyed a guided tour of both the House and its underground vault that holds the Technology Collection.

Although the snow prevented us from enjoying the garden (typical Rochester), we toured the entire inside of the house and ran into a replica that is made entirely from gingerbread and candy. (See full picture in the gallery below)

In the vault

Todd Gustavson, the curator of the Technology Collection, gave us a tour of the underground vault that is lined with shelves holding hundreds of cameras, lenses, and various other photography / cinematography equipment. It was very interesting to bear witness to a slice of history through the many instruments that documents how far we’ve come in our journey to record our realities.
