The “Natures Vivantes” exhibition

Albert Kahn museum

The image shows a woman standing in a modern art gallery or museum. She is looking at a display case, which is likely showcasing an exhibit or artwork. The gallery has large windows that provide a view of a lush green landscape outside. The interior features wooden flooring and a minimalist design with white walls. The woman is dressed in a black outfit and appears engaged with the exhibits. The overall atmosphere is calm and reflective, blending indoor and outdoor elements.

In the early decades of the 20th century, Albert Kahn had thousands of images taken of his two gardens: the one in Boulogne and the one, now disappeared, at his Mediterranean residence in Cap-Martin. These photographs and films testify to the patron’s attachment to his landscaped creations. The autochromes capture the richness of floral colors, extending the experiments of the pioneers of photography, while the cinematograph captures the movement of branches swaying in the wind, the work of gardeners, and the strolls of guests in these green havens.

We developed two touch screens with our friends from Mosquito. As usual, the content is managed under SPIP and the developments are entirely in web technologies.

**The Garden with Scenic Landscapes**

This very beautiful display, installed facing the bay window that overlooks the garden, presents a large number of autochromes arranged on an interactive plan. Certain points of interest showcase an autochrome alongside a recent photograph of the same location.

Finally, a quiz allows visitors to become familiar with the garden.

**Create Your Time-Lapse**

This device presents a collection of photographs showing the blooming of a cyclamen. Visitors are invited to rearrange the photographs in the correct order and play the "film" created in this way.
