https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2001697432/

A sepia-toned image depicting a bustling street in late 19th or early 20th-century Kiev, Russia. It shows an array of ornate buildings with elaborate facades featuring decorative stonework and classical architectural elements such as columns and pilasters. The architecture suggests European influence, possibly during the Russian Empire period.

On this wide boulevard, we see a variety of activities: pedestrians walking along or crossing at intersections; horse-drawn carriages moving through the streets; people standing on street corners conversing with others in front of shops that have closed shutters down for business hours. Some individuals appear to be engaged in labor-related tasks.

In the background stands an imposing building topped with a golden dome, likely indicating its significance as either religious or governmental structure within this urban landscape. The sky is overcast and gives off a quiet yet dynamic atmosphere captured by Loener's photochrom print from Nicolviewskaia (Nikolaevskaia), Kiev.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002710954/

This image depicts a picturesque, mountainous landscape featuring lush greenery and towering trees in the foreground. In the middle distance, there is an expansive valley with meandering streams or rivers surrounded by dense forests of varying shades of green. The background showcases majestic snow-capped peaks rising against a clear sky with hints of pinkish hues near the horizon line. There's also visible mist or fog partially obscuring parts of the mountain range and creating a mystical atmosphere in this serene, high-altitude environment.

The image appears to be an old postcard, as indicated by its aged appearance and text at the bottom that reads "1907 P.Z." with additional handwriting suggesting it was taken near Kaferthal. This suggests the photograph may have been taken between 1890 and around 1900 in what is now Austria-Hungary, reflecting a historical context for this striking natural landscape captured by Loener's Photochrom prints collection.

http://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/collection/RP-F-2019-299-34-52

The image depicts a monochrome photograph of an indoor setting, likely part of the collection from NOS (Netherlands Organized State Television). The main focus is on two framed portraits displayed against brick wall surfaces. In one frame, there are three individuals: two men and one woman. One man appears to be giving a thumbs-up gesture while wearing glasses and a suit jacket; another man stands beside him in formal attire with his hand raised as if waving or greeting someone. The central figure is an older woman dressed elegantly in a black gown, adorned with a large brooch on her chest.

In the foreground of this portrait frame lies a real-life image capturing a dog mid-air capture from behind; it seems to be leaping off a surface, possibly playing fetch or being photographed playfully. The second framed picture appears similar but is smaller and placed above the first one in terms of vertical positioning within its respective corner.

The lighting on these objects suggests an indoor environment with natural light coming through windows not visible in this cropped image. There are no discernible colors due to it being a black-and-white photo; however, shades vary from white to deep blacks indicative of varying textures and tones like the brick wall's rough texture compared to the smoothness seen within the frames' portraits.

The presence of 'Ed van der Elsken' suggests this work is by Edouard Van Der Elsken (1925-19 [...]

#theBellevueStreet #Carlsbad #Bohemia #Austro #ČeskéBudějovice #theCzechRepublic #Loener #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002708473/

The image displays a panoramic view of Carlsbad (now known as České Budějovice) in the Czech Republic, likely taken between 1890 and 1900. The photograph captures an elevated vantage point overlooking various architectural structures including buildings with ornate facades, spires, and rooftops densely packed across a hilly terrain.

In the foreground, there is greenery indicative of cultivated fields or gardens, where several haystacks are neatly stacked in rows alongside what appears to be a road leading up towards Carlsbad. A path winds through these hay bales, suggesting an approach route for travelers.

The middle ground shows rolling hills with trees and patches of open space that could indicate parks or natural reserves. The background features the historic castle complex on top of a hill, which is prominently visible against the sky. This structure's elaborate architecture includes multiple towers, dormers, and large windows, signifying its importance as a landmark.

The overall coloration has an old-fashioned appearance with sepia tones that were popular in printed photographs from this era, enhancing the historical atmosphere captured by Loener photochrom prints.

#Kalvarienberg #Austria #Austro #Loener&Co #ZellamSee #Austrian #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002708454/

The image is a vintage postcard featuring an aerial view of the town Zell am See, located on the shores of Austria's largest lake. The scenery showcases rolling hills covered with trees and grasslands in shades of green, leading up to majestic mountains capped with snow or rocky outcrops against a clear sky.

In the foreground, there is a dense concentration of buildings ranging from residential houses with sloped roofs and balconies to larger structures that appear like hotels or public institutions. Some prominent features include a church spire standing tall among other rooftops and a railway track curving along the lakeside, indicating connectivity within this picturesque town.

The lake itself reflects sunlight on its surface, hinting at either early morning light or late afternoon sunshine. The water's calmness suggests minimal wind activity in the area. Overall, the image captures a peaceful moment of rural life in an alpine setting during the late 19th to early 20th century.

Additional information indicates that this postcard was created between approximately 1890 and 1900 by Loener & Co., which produced photochrom prints. The photograph is titled "Zell am See" from Kalvarienberg, Austria, Austro-Hungary, reflecting its historical context during the period of Austrian-Hungarian Empire's existence.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002708426/

This image depicts a picturesque view of Kahlenberg, Vienna in the Austro-Hungarian Empire during its existence between approximately 1890 and 1900. The photograph showcases an expansive hillside dotted with lush greenery and scattered trees against a clear sky. Nestled on top of this verdant landscape is a grand estate composed of multiple buildings featuring elaborate architecture, including prominent towers and intricate designs indicative of the period's architectural styles. One such tower stands out prominently at the center-top part of the complex, drawing attention to its historical significance. The image has an old-fashioned appearance with sepia tones characteristic of early 20th-century photographs, adding a sense of nostalgia and historical context to the scene captured in this photograph by Loener's photolithography company.

Mozart Monument, Vienna, Austro-Hungary between ca. 1890 and ca. 1900. Views of the Austro-Hungarian Empire

#MozartMonument #Vienna #Austro #MOZARTHÄRFENNEN #MozartErdenkranz #Earth #Mozart #Viennese #European #Loener #Austro-Hungary #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002708416/

The image depicts a statue, possibly from an early 19th-century publication or postcard. The central figure is a male standing on a pedestal with inscriptions and sculptural embellishments.

On the top of the pedestal reads "MOZART HÄRFENNEN," which could be interpreted as a misspelling for "Mozart Erdenkranz" (the Earth's Crown), referencing Mozart's association with Viennese culture. The statue appears to represent Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, wearing classical attire and holding what looks like sheet music or documents in his hand.

Surrounding the central figure are multiple smaller sculptures of cherubs interacting around musical instruments such as a flute and violin. These add an artistic flair but do not convey historical accuracy regarding Mozart's life.

The backdrop features a building facade with windows, shutters, and red-striped awnings that resemble those found in European cities during this period. The overall color scheme is sepia-toned, suggesting the image could be based on or created as part of early photochrom printing techniques used to reproduce images from postcards for mass consumption.

There's no visible indication of a photographer like Loener; however, given the reference context provided—Mozart Monument, Vienna—with an approximate date range (ca. 1890 - ca. 1900), this image likely dates within that timeframe and is part of a collection or series documenting cultural sites across Austro-Hungary.

A black and white photograph depicting a group of people standing behind a signboard on what appears to be the upper deck or cabin area of a boat. The signboard reads "NEW UPPER HUTT POST OFFICE," indicating that this image is related to an architectural project for a post office in Upper Hut, possibly New Zealand given the context provided by Loener's work series titled 'Notes on the country I live in.' Amongst those pictured are men and women, with one woman wearing glasses and another child visible. The design credits suggest involvement from various government bodies such as the Ministry of Works and a commissioner overseeing works for Frank Sinatra Construction Co., among others.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017660785/

The image is a historical photograph depicting the Puerta del Perdón, which is an ornate entrance gate leading into what appears to be a cathedral. The architecture of the gateway and surrounding buildings showcases intricate details with carved figures on pedestals flanking either side of the archway. Above the main portal, there's a decorative panel featuring several religious statues or sculptures in niches. People are seen walking through and sitting around the gate area, suggesting that this was taken during a time when such places were still accessible to pedestrians.

The overall tone of the photograph is sepia-toned, which gives it an aged appearance indicative of its historical context. The image appears to have been captured by Loener & Co., as indicated in the watermark at the bottom right corner, and shows signs of wear or fading typical for prints from that era. This particular depiction falls under the category of "Doors & doorways," which is part of a larger collection featuring various architectural elements found within religious structures.

The photograph seems to be taken during daylight hours as evidenced by the natural light illuminating the scene, and it provides insight into how such historic sites were perceived in late 19th or early 20th-century Spain.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017774156/

This black and white photograph depicts a rustic scene in what appears to be a logging or forest area. In the foreground, there is an old-fashioned metal water tank on wooden wheels attached to a wagon-like structure with two visible large spoked tires.

The tank has weathered paint and shows signs of use, suggesting it may have been repurposed for various functions over time. There are several wooden barrels lined up alongside each other near the tank, possibly serving as storage or casks for liquids like water or whiskey.

In the background, numerous tall evergreen trees stand amidst a landscape littered with tree stumps and fallen logs, indicating that logging activities have taken place in this area. The barren ground between the stumps suggests recent clearing work by loggers.

The photograph is marked "Dorothea Lange" at the bottom left corner, which refers to Dorothea Lange (1895-1965), an American photojournalist known for her compelling photographs of people affected during major events in US history. The image has a watermark text that reads "@LOENER.NL", indicating it is sourced from the collection or website managed by Loener.

The overall composition and context suggest this could be part of Lange's work documenting rural life, agriculture, industry, and migrant laborers across various regions in America during her career with organizations like Farm Security Administration (FSA).

#CalleMayor #Fuenterrabía #Spain #Viewsof #Barcelona #Hondarribia #SanSebastián #European #Loener&Co #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2001699362/

The image is a sepia-toned photograph of an old street, likely taken between the late 19th and early 20th century. The scene depicts a narrow cobblestone road winding through European-style buildings with balconies on their upper floors. To one side, there's a dilapidated building with visible structural damage, such as missing parts of its facade and exposed internal walls. On the opposite street, an old church or cathedral stands prominently in the background, featuring ornate architecture including a tower with a dome-like structure that houses what appears to be bell towers.

Several people are present on the sidewalks; one woman is walking away from the camera down the cobblestone path while others seem engaged in conversation. The image has text at its bottom indicating it's part of an album or collection, listing locations such as Fuenterrabía and Ollate Mayor within Spain. It suggests that this photo was produced by Loener & Co., a company known for creating colored lithographs during the late 19th century.

Overall, the image evokes a sense of history with its detailed architectural elements, street life captured in monochrome tones, suggesting an era before widespread color photography and modern urban development.

Frog, Bay of Plenty. From the series: We live by a lake

#Frog,BayofPlenty #BayofPlenty #Loener #AnsWestra #moe_tahurangi #Kōtuia #Frogs #Leaves #photographicgelatin #photographicpaper #silver #workprints #gelatinsilverprints #Wellington #undefined

http://api.digitalnz.org/records/40737376/source

This black and white photograph features a single frog prominently positioned in the center. The amphibian is situated among what appears to be grass or vegetation, with its body mostly visible from behind as it sits on some kind of foliage.

The background consists mainly of darker tones, suggesting shadows cast by surrounding plants and possibly trees out of view. Notably, there are blades of grass extending towards the foreground at varying angles; their pointed tips contrast against both the frog's smoother texture and dark surroundings.

There is a slight vignette effect around the edges of the photograph which directs focus onto the central subject - the frog. The absence of color in this image enhances textures like those on the frog’s skin, creating an almost tactile quality to it for viewers who engage with photography as visual art form rather than just information conveyance.

The composition has a candid feel and conveys a sense of still life within nature's domain. It seems captured during daylight due to its overall brightness but without any direct sunlight visible on the subject or surroundings, giving an impressionistic glimpse into this nocturnal creature’s habitat in Bay of Plenty region according to provided context about it being from Loener collection based out of AnsWestra location.

There are no discernible human-made objects within sight; everything appears natural and undisturbed. This photograp [...]

Emperor William's Monument, Cologne, the Rhine, Germany between ca. 1890 and ca. 1900. Views of Germany

#William #Cologne #Rhine #Germany #Viewsof #European #Loener #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002714094/

This image depicts a large, historical bronze statue of Emperor William I on horseback. The sculpture is mounted atop an elaborate pedestal with additional figures and decorative elements including urns and flowing water from the fountain-like structure at its base.

Emperor William I appears in regal attire, wearing a helmet adorned with plumes and draped over his shoulders. He holds what seems to be a sword or staff in one hand while resting his other arm on the horse's neck for balance as he rides atop it.

The statue is situated within an urban setting, surrounded by European-style buildings that display ornate details such as cornices, pilasters, and decorative facades. A classical figure holds a laurel wreath above Emperor William I’s head, symbolizing victory or honor in Roman culture.

In the foreground of the image are well-maintained gardens with neatly trimmed hedges and vibrant flower beds, adding to the overall aesthetic appeal of this monument. The photograph itself has a sepia tone indicative of its age, which suggests that it was taken during or around the late 19th century as mentioned in the additional information provided.

The presence of text at the bottom edge indicates that this image may have been part of an illustrated publication from the time period specified by Loener's photochrom prints collection.

#MassimoB-Storie #MassimoBTrani’s #Storiediunamaschera #Loener

https://www.fondazione3m.it/page_scheda.php?id=3974

The image depicts a black and white photograph of an old, worn-out mask lying on the ground amidst debris. The mask appears to be made of fabric or paper with cutout eye holes and is in poor condition, suggesting it has been exposed to harsh elements over time. Surrounding the mask are various fragments that could have once belonged to other objects—possibly pieces of clothing or household items. The textures within the photo range from rough to smooth surfaces, indicating a mix of materials like fabric, wood, and perhaps metal among the scattered debris.

The monochromatic tone gives the image a somber feel, emphasizing themes such as decay, abandonment, or nostalgia. There's an air of mystery surrounding what story this mask holds, evoking curiosity about its origin, purpose, and how it ended up in its current state on the ground amidst so much disarray.

This photograph is associated with Massimo B. Trani’s work "Storie di una maschera," a title that translates to 'Stories of a Mask.' The image seems to be taken from an article or publication by Loener, as indicated by their website URL in the source citation provided (https://images.loener.nl/RivistaFerrania/full/66f1/66f1403426a552dad254e2b1.jpg).

#BrandenburgerTor #Berlin #Germany #BrandenburgGate #Justice #Loener #BerlinBrandenburg #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/98507214/

This image depicts a historical scene of Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany. The architecture is neoclassical with tall columns and detailed stonework. Atop the gate are four bronze horses on chariots, which represent the four cardinal virtues: Prudence, Justice, Strength, and Temperance.

The setting appears to be during a time when horse-drawn carriages were common; several such vehicles line up along one side of the square in front of the monument. People dressed in period attire are scattered throughout, some walking individually while others seem to be engaging in conversation or leisurely strolling around this significant landmark.

In contrast with the architecture and setting, a streetlamp is visible on either side of Brandenburg Gate, suggesting that even at its time, there was an awareness for public lighting. The overall mood conveyed by the image suggests it captures not just the architectural grandeur but also the daily life within Berlin during 19th-century Germany.

This picture seems to be part of a collection from around 1832-6; P Z, and is labeled "BERLIN BRANDENBURGER TOR" with additional information indicating its source as images.loener.nl. This suggests that it might have been created or distributed by Loener during the specified years in Berlin Brandenburg region (likely Germany).

#Berlin #Germany #ViewsofGermany #Loener #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002713618/

The image depicts a historical view of the University in Berlin, Germany during approximately between 1890 and 1900. The scene showcases an expansive courtyard surrounded by grand neoclassical architecture with symmetrical rows of windows and large rectangular rooms that suggest institutional significance.

In the foreground, there is a well-manicured garden area featuring pathways lined with lamp posts and trees providing shade to benches along the sides. A prominent fountain serves as a centerpiece in this green space. The courtyard extends into an open plaza where several individuals are seen walking or standing at various distances from the viewer's perspective.

Horse-drawn carriages navigate through the paved roads, indicating transportation modes of that era. In the background, statues and sculptures adorn pedestals near lampposts, adding to the cultural ambiance of this institutionally significant area. The overall atmosphere reflects a bustling academic environment typical during late 19th-century Germany.

The print is marked with "07/85" in the lower right corner, suggesting it could be part of an edition or series by Loener.

#Gertelbach #Baden #Germany #Viewsof #German #Edwardian #Loener #PhotochromPrints #GertelbachWaterfall #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002713607/

This image is a vintage postcard depicting a scenic waterfall in the German countryside. The cascading water forms small pools and streams among moss-covered rocks, surrounded by dense greenery that suggests it's nestled within a forested area. A wooden bridge with railings spans across the middle of the stream where people are gathered, possibly to enjoy or observe the view.

On this rustic bridge stands a group of individuals who appear to be early 20th-century tourists dressed in period-appropriate attire—long skirts for women and light-colored shirts, vests, and trousers for men. The clothing is indicative of late Victorian or Edwardian fashion.

The photograph bears a watermark with what seems like the initials "R.Z." at the bottom right corner alongside some text that indicates it may be from an archive (possibly related to Loener's Photochrom Prints).

This postcard likely comes from around 1890-1900, as suggested by its historical context and style. It serves both a functional purpose of communication through postal services and also acts as a keepsake documenting the beauty and attractions of Germany during that era.

The watermark text reads "GERTELBAUCH - WASSERFALL," which refers to Gertelbach Waterfall in Baden, suggesting this might be an area popular among tourists for its natural scenery.

#Hohenkrahen #Baden #Germany #Viewsof #Loener #photography #historicalPhotos

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002713589/

This image displays a vivid landscape featuring an elevated fortification set atop a steep, rocky hillside. The area is verdant with lush greenery and patches of yellow flowers dotting the lower slopes. A stone wall or structure encloses some part of this hilltop fortress which has ruins that suggest historical military significance. Buildings appear to be nestled within these walls, indicating habitation likely from past times. Surrounding structures are visible on adjacent higher grounds, hinting at a rural setting with pastoral greenery extending into the distance where it meets a clear horizon under an expansive sky.

The image is characterized by its vibrant colors and somewhat aged appearance, suggesting that this might be a historical photograph rather than a contemporary depiction of Hohenkrahen in Baden, Germany. It's labeled "632 P.Z - HOHENKRAHEN" at the bottom with additional information indicating it may have been published around 1890-1900 as part of photographic prints from Loener, which was known for producing such images during that era.

This historical image captures not only a geographical location but also offers insights into how landscapes and structures were perceived and documented in the late 19th century.
