Photo Elysée houses unique collections of more than 1,200,000 phototypes covering the entire spectrum of photographic art in all its dimensions – historical, aesthetic, technical, social and cultural – from the earliest processes dating back to the 1840s through to today’s digital images.
Requests for loans and reproductions
Photo Elysée's collections are currently being moved to the museum's new storerooms at Plateforme 10. For this reason, access to certain items is still limited and all requests for research, loans or reproductions are addressed on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us at collections@elysee.ch.
