Birmingham Central Library and Photographic Archive

The best high end, high resolution, high definition photography of collections held at Birmingham Central Library and Photographic Archive.

These art works are carefully handled and photographed in collaboration with various departments of the central libraries curators, technical staff, security and conservation teams. Images are produced to exact colour and surface resolution standards. Especially large, reflective and fragile objects are photographed in house or in off-site studios, this work takes careful preparation, time and patience. The resulting super high resolution, high definition images are unequaled in quality and are used for large scale reproduction in exhibitions and in a range of digital and print media.
