Areas of particular interest include distinctive 19th-century photographs taken by engineers, the debate about photography's status as an art form at the start of the 20th century, the catastrophic flood in 1953, the former colonies, and \U+2018\the self-critical gaze'. This thematic approach makes it possible to see work by famous photographers alongside work by unknown figures who wielded the camera.
