The Photographer’s Studio, Gustav
Wasas gata 11
The building at the other end of the museum courtyard is the so-called Lindblad’s House dating from the 1730’s. It presents a picture of the working facilities of a small-town photographer around 1950, consisting of a studio where the photos were taken, a darkroom where the films were developed and copied, as well as a shop for selling films, cameras and frames. There is also a small exhibition of cameras. The basis of the whole collection was a donation of cameras and photo equipment (about 1000 objects) by Harry Holmström, a former Ekenäs photographer. The so-called Lindblad’s House, where the photographer’s studio is located, was built in the 1730’s and was moved to the museum in 1961.
