"By the time of Albert Kahn’s death in 1940, the French banker and
philanthropist had amassed a collection of more than 72,000 autochrome
photographs. Grace Linden explores the
Archives de la Planète — his
sprawling, global project to document and preserve the fast-changing world —
and uncovers a latent nostalgia in the hyperreal hues of early color
photography."
