About 10 million historical images and photographs of the past three centuries, the archives of the defunct Life magazine, are available on Google since yesterday. In a search at http / images.google.com / hosted / life find out 200 references to Portugal.
The first images are of 1750, with portraits of the composer Bach, and the latest photos are from 2007, the black and white, which capture the opera Cosi Fan Tutte, by Mozart.
In the search for the term Portugal, the first image is a portrait of the exiled Dom Pedro I, dated 1828, and the last is a photograph from 1970 of the train in Porto, allegedly a report on rail travel in Europe.
Overall, the two hundred images focus is on personality in political pose, vacation or official visits of monarchs (Oscar Carmona, the English queen Elisabete II and Prince Felipe, Juan Carlos of Spain and parents). There are also pictures (of the young Portuguese Youth, fishermen, Fado singer), picturesque landscapes (the Estoril predominates) or an image on the floods in Lisbon in 1967. And yet several references to James Earl Ray, the Sino-Assas of Martin Luther King, who spent 10 days in Lisbon the following year.
In historical terms, noting the signing of Portuguese-tion in establishing the Organization of the North Atlantic Treaty (1949), the entry of Portugal at the United Nations in 1955 or the encounter with the president of Salazar the American Yo-enhower in 1960. In total, were released three million images, with the rest being added gradualmen you. Some are ill-listing of and, in recent years since the end of the magazine, most referred-to covers of Life and Time, both bas edited by Time Warner.
Life had until 1972 editions weekly and monthly from 1978 to 2000, when ceased its publication. Last September, announced that it would revive the Web in early 2009 at life.com. The estate of Life, only 3% was known before the public. The records were digitized and made available for free use with personal purposes and for research but all images have an indication of copyright Time, including one, for example, disclosed by NASA.
The confusion is even greater because in aid on the file there is no reference to personal use or for researchers, but the commercial use of images is included. There is also a business model added to each image with its acquisition, framed. In the official Google blog, stress-if "possibilities for gifts" possible with this option. |
