Traces of a pioneer – A treasure in 72 boxes was in the old attic in 72 boxes

Date:

In the house of his grandparents in St. Lambrecht (Styria) Simon Baptist raised a treasure: photos that took photo pioneer Franz Göttfried between the 1920s and 1940s in the styric town of. Together with the population, he starts investigating history. Now you can be seen in the Museum of History in Graz.

In the beginning there is a random find. In the 1990s, the grandparents of the filmmaker and photo artist Simon Baptist buy the entire Anthof in Styrian St. Lambrecht: “They were not aware of it at the time, but they also gained a large photographic heritage with the house,” says Baptist. In the attic you will find 72 small boxes with 500 glass plate negatives-so are photos that the former owner of the farm, Franz Göttfried, took his house between the 1920s and 1940s.
