From the world's oldest photographic workshop, millions of exclusive images narrate the world of yesterday and the life of today, our history and our future.

Established in Florence in 1852, Fratelli Alinari is the world's oldest firm operating in the field of photography, that is in the fundamental sector of images and communication. The history of Alinari coincides with the very history of photography: the activity of the dynasty of Alinari photographers is at the heart of the huge photographic heritage housed in the present Alinari Archives. It is a heritage which is becoming larger and larger and which, thanks to a sensible policy of new acquisitions and new photographic campaigns, ranges from daguerreotypes to modern color photographs. Alinari is today the leader in traditional and multimedia photographic publishing and is synonymous with the highest quality in the production of artistic prints.

Alinari represents an irreplaceable landmark for preserving, cataloguing, making known and handing down, through photography, Italian and European history, society, art and culture.
