photography and &#8216;examine how it has influenced the way we capture and share images today when more photographs are taken in two minutes than were taken in the whole of the 19th century\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Alison Morrison Low, principal curator of Science at National Museums Scotland, said: \u2018Just as today we love to document the world around us photographically, so too were the Victorians obsessed with taking and sharing photographs.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Low added: \u2018Photography: A Victorian Sensation will transport visitors back to the 19th century, linking the Victorian craze for photography with the role it plays in everyday life today.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The show will trace the history of photography from its birth in the modern form in 1839, until 1900.<\/p>\n<p>It will look at the Victorian \u2018craze\u2019 for collecting cartes-de-visite, driven by the desire to share images and put them in photo albums.<\/p>\n<p><a
