\n\t\t\t\t\"losThe capital of Alcarria lived, during the second half of the 19th century, a certain cultural and scientific splendor as a result of the establishment and consolidation in the city of various centers that stimulate knowledge and science, such as the Superior Academy of Military Engineers and the annexed Aerostation Park , the Normal School of Teaching and the Institute of Secondary Education, in whose shadow many other associations of free thought and recreation were born, such as the Pe\u00f1a, the Ateneo Caracense, or the Obrero. It is significant that in 1922, when the Academy of Historical Research was founded, a Photography Section was included, which was left in charge of Francisco GO\u00d1I and Enrique DIGES.\r\n
\r\n\r\nPerhaps we could consider that date, 1922, as the end of a first period of photography in Guadalajara, that of the pioneers.\r\n
\r\n\r\nAs always, the proximity to Madrid was an immediate influence in those initial moments; first with the visit and sporadic work of foreign photographers, such as the British\u00a0Charles CLIFFORD<\/a>\u00a0(c.1855-1856), or French\u00a0jean laurent<\/a>\u00a0(1870). Second, with the occasional presence of commercial photographers such as\u00a0Ramon SAEZ<\/a>\u00a0(1853),\u00a0Amador CUESTA<\/a>, either\u00a0Florencio Navarro<\/a>\u00a0who would settle in Guadalajara from 1883, occupying the office that Francisco EYR\u00c9 and Vicente V\u00c1ZQUEZ had opened in 1864, at number 44 Calle Mayor. NAVARRO and his Successors of Navarro would be followed by many others who tried to break through in Guadalajara. We should mention, among others,\u00a0Manuel ARIZA<\/a>\u00a0(since 1897),\u00a0Francisco MAR\u00cd<\/a>(1906),\u00a0ANGEL ARQUER<\/a>\u00a0(1912) or, the already cited\u00a0Francisco GONI<\/a>\u00a0(1918), dedicated more to press photography. But the true engine of photography in Guadalajara will be the Photographic Service. This body linked to the Military Aerostation, in addition to attending to its own military interests, functioned as a true school for photographers, later incorporated into civil society. Professionals as prestigious and creative as\u00a0JOSE ORTIZ ECHAGUE<\/a>, Eduardo SUSANNA, or Jos\u00e9 REYES RUIZ, all of them members of the pictorialist currents. The latter would open, in 1925, his own cabinet on Rom\u00e1n Atienza street, still in operation today. The material used then by Mr. Jos\u00e9 REYES (camera, enlargers, furniture and lighting system), and which served to immortalize the image of several generations, today is used to reproduce an ideal photographic study from the first quarter of the 20th century. Finally, this fleeting review of the dawn of photography in Guadalajara should not forget those fans who, with their heavy machines, toured the province capturing its landscapes, types, customs, and wealth of heritage. From Santiago MART\u00cdNEZ PALACIOS (1884), to Tom\u00e1s CAMARILLO, through Jacinto AB\u00d3S (1910), or the architect Antonio V\u00c1ZQUEZ FIGUEROA (1907).\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
