Period
Karsh of Ottawa studio operated 1932-1992.
Canada
Part of a large collection of photographic equipment used by Yousuf Karsh, Canada's internationally honoured portrait photographer. From 1932 to 1992, Mr. Karsh operated from his principle studio in Ottawa, photographing heads of state, religious leaders, and those prominent in business, the arts and entertainment. His photographic prints and negatives, and personal papers are in the National Archives of Canada.
Function
Used as auxiliary artificial light
Technical
Originally designed as an enlarger for aerial images, this unit was used to print enlargements up to 30x40 inches from Karsh's original 4x5 and 8x10 negatives. Including the time required for burning and dodging, the largest photographs (ie. the portrait of Georgia O'Keeffe) could take up to 30 minutes to print. Mr. Ignas Gabalis began working as Karsh's printer in the early 1950’s, and retired when the studio closed in 1992. [ref.2]
