Abstract

Lantern slides have been an import means in popular and higher education far into the twentieth century. The University Museum Utrecht holds, among others, slides of scientific expeditions (1900-1940) in its collection: Utrecht scientists from various disciplines (astronomy, biology, geology, archeology and more) documented not only their research findings but also themselves when on field trips. Which self-image about being a scientist and “doing science” are implied in these photographic lantern slides?
