CAMERA OBSCURA

WELCOME 

Pre-Second World War Lithuanian Jewish photographs provide a unique and irreplaceable record of a civilisation that no longer exists. Camera Obscura is an unparalleled cultural history and provenance research project that celebrates these magical images through the eyes of the mostly forgotten women and men who made them, that documents the innumerable stories of their almost total destruction during the German occupation of Lithuania between June 1941 and January 1945, and that provides detailed information about the relatively few photographs that managed to survive.
