János Fridrich Photo Studio 1905

The last I posted about this museum was in 2006 ; but recently I found the following shots of the studio and thanks to photographer Nagy Béla for allowing me to share them here. Isn't it just charming ?

People 6 : at work

Paris DP's reflection reminded me of this shot. The man on the left is a seasoned photographer who is now working at the the town's 100 year-old photo studio/gallery . He had to stop photography due to his weakening eye-sight; which causes him some trouble focusing a camera. While we were there, he explained every piece with passion, telling us stories behind each photo. While we had a good time, I do hope he enjoys his work:)

Later, we found out that his name is Dömötör Mihály, the photographer of the complimentary post-card we got from the visit .

If you are here in Szentes, you may want to visit Fridrich János Photo Studio. The studio which was established in 1905 currently is made permanent gallery of Mr.Fridrich works and equipment. This was once a favourite meeting place for local artists.You will be received by a gallery guide who would love to share his knowledge about the gallery with you :)) ; however, you'll need a translator if you dont speak Hungarian :)
