After examining more than 50,000 photographs of Gran Canaria, kept in local, national and international archives and collections, historian Gabriel Betancor Quintana, embarked upon an exhaustive study of the photographers behind the lenses, their techniques and the socio-economic circumstances in which the images were taken. This book brings together a selection of more than 200 photographs of the island, many of which have never been published before. These images narrate 100 years of change in the island's landscapes, culture, economy and politics. Accompanying us on this journey is an-depth historical guide that helps us to fully understand the meaning and context of the photographs. Above all, this book opens a window into the past, inviting us to lean through and witness the evolving face of Gran Canaria between 1840 and 1940.
Beginning of the history of photography on La Palma, which documents the history of the island between 1860 and 1960.
