The exhibition will be inaugurated on Wednesday, 17 December 2015 at 7:00 p.m. in the Estudi General Exhibition Hall of the Universitat de València.
The exhibition 'Fotografía y obra pública. Paisajes de la modernidad: Lucio del Valle (1815-1874)' ['Photography and Public Work. Modern Landscapes: Lucio del Valle (1815-1874)'] can be defined as a photographic exhibition since a big part of it is made up of original photographies of that time, through which we can create a path, not only of the main constructions of Lucio del Valle but also the peculiar creations of Spain during those decades. The history of photography starts in 1839 and was the most adecuate canvas to show the development of science in the 19th century.
Photographers, government institutions and companies honoured progress and modernity with unpublished photographies, with unique photography albums or selected articles, carried out on the occasion of the construction of roads, railways and hidraulic works.
