Von Kolkow & Co.

Von Kolkow & Co. was a photography studio, likely operating in the mid-19th century. The studio specialized in portraiture, producing formal and posed images of individuals in a variety of settings. These portraits, captured in the style of the Carte de Visite, showcase the fashion and social norms of the era and offer a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people. The studio’s work is an excellent example of early photographic practice and the developing role of photography in documenting individuals and society.
