Abstract
The Photo Archive is a secondary documentation holdings which covers a rich and diverse content relevant for entire Istria. The oldest documents date back to mid 1950s. When it comes to theme, most pictures depict rural scenery and architecture, objects, household inventory, furniture, and clothes. Although the collection is extremely valuable and far-reaching, the holdings are characterised by a lack of academic debate, and functionality. It is because of this that an analysis was conducted and systematization was undertaken as necessary steps in the further development with the goal of establishing a wholesome images database.
