On display at the Ryerson Image Centre at the moment is a collection of more than 200 photographs called “True to the Eyes”. These photos were part of a collection amassed by Howard and Carole Tanenbaum over the past forty or so years. The images span the history of photography. There is a bit more information on the Ryerson Image Centre website.
below: An old tintype of three hunters and their dogs. The process was developed in 1853 and was popular during the 1860s and 1870s. Tintypes were printed directly on metal (but not actually on tin)- a photographic emulsion was applied to a metal plate.
below: Two wonderful portraits by Rafael Goldchain
below: New York City, 1947, a black and white photo by Louis Faurer (1916-2001, American). Faurer did a lot of fashion photography for magazines of the day but he is best known for his street photography in New York City and in Philadelphia.
below: Also on display at the Ryerson Image Centre is a small collection of photos and items from the history of Kodak in Toronto. The exhibit was organized by Ryerson students.
If you are interested in the history of photography or in vintage photos, part 2 of the exhibit of photos from the WW1 era is on display at the Art Gallery of Ontario.

The Centre has some really good shows — and I’ve loved the building itself, and its siting, from the start. Love that pool/pond in front (depending on season) too.
The RIC rarely disappoints. They have a treasure trove of photographs of all ages.
I remember being so excited when it first opened, rushing to see the first show; happy to know it continues at the same high level
