This conference is part of the exhibition &#8220;Private lives, shared stories. The photographic collection of the Mascort family&#8221;, curated by Marta herself in 2018, at the Mascort Foundation, in Torroella de Montgr\u00ed.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its chronological extension, and also due to its variety in terms of photographic typologies, the Mascort family collection is an excellent example of the value that a private photographic archive can have. This collection, which has its origins from 1860, allows us to explain and see photography from different points of view, making it a legacy worthy of being studied and presented as a documentary archive of unquestionable value, through which different aspects can be shelled out, both of the history of photography &#8211; and of the photographers who made it possible &#8211; and of society.<\/p>\n<p>We can highlight several aspects of the Mascort family&#8217;s photographic collection. The first of these is its wide chronological scope, which allows us to see an evolution of photographic procedures and formats, becoming an example of the preservation of some of the older photographic procedures, such as a colored albumin of c. 1862, two ferrotypes from the end of the s. XIX and early XX, and a large number of stereoscopic glass plates (dating from the first quarter of the twentieth century). In terms of format, a large number of business cards stand out, as well as large photographs dating from the early 20th century.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone
