Fotógrafo Llado. Fotografía antigua Marruecos.
Sobre el fotógrafo Lladó, del cual tengo alguna otra fotografía, solo he encontrado un dato en la Summa Artis, que indica que algunas fotografias del archivo Lladó pasaron a formar parte del Archivo de la Direccion General de Turismo.
Representa, según indica al dorso, Beni-bu-Iacob. Marruecos. Monumentos religiosos. Un morabito.
Se puede fechar hacia los años 40.
ACTUALIZACIÓN DE DATOS 2014
En fotografía antigua es conveniente, de tiempo en tiempo, revisar los datos que tenemos sobre fotografía y fotógrafos.
En la revisión sobre fotos de "Archivo Lladó" acabo de tener una agradable sorpresa.
El CSIC esta digitalizando sus fondos entre los cuales se encuentra el Archivo Luis LLadó.
El Departamento de Archivo y la Unidad de Tecnología de la Biblioteca Tomás Navarro Tomás han creado un espacio en la página web de la
biblioteca sobre el fondo del fotógrafo Luis Lladó.
Luis Lladó es un fotógrafo poco conocido que trabajó en la primera
mitad del siglo XX, hasta 1936 en España, y en México durante su
exilio.
Lladó fue un fotógrafo muy preocupado por la técnica y por la
expresión artística. Aspectos que dotan de especial calidad sus
instantáneas.
El ACCHS del CSIC conserva una importante colección de 5.884
negativos de temática variada, en la que destacan las vistas
arquitectónicas, los paisajes y los retratos de la España de la época.
Hasta el momento se han descrito 717 fotografías. Los registros y las
imágenes están disponibles en el Catálogo de Archivos del CSIC.
Y desde esta web podemos acceder a la propia web del fotógrafo.

Si accedemos a la biografía podemos destacar los siguientes apartados
En 1920 fue nombrado oficialmente fotógrafo de la Escuela Superior de
Arquitectura de Madrid, cargo que ya ejercía desde 1918. Como apreciado
fotógrafo se le encomendaron importantes trabajos para el Patronato
Nacional de Turismo. Paralelamente desarrolló su carrera profesional en
su estudio madrileño, ubicado en las calles Santa Engracia y,
posteriormente, Bretón de los Herreros.
Prueba de la repercusión de su producción fotográfica es el artículo que en 1927 aparece en La Esfera,
"Cuando la fotografía es un arte: el ejemplo de Luis Lladó". En este
texto se hace referencia a la exposición organizada por Lladó en el
Museo de Arte Moderno, donde se pone de relevancia las magníficas
cualidades de este fotógrafo
Durante la Guerra Civil, trabajó para el Archivo Fotográfico de la
Delegación de Propaganda y Prensa de Madrid, junto con importantes
fotógrafos del momento como los hermanos Mayo y Alfonso, entre otros, de
cuyos registros queda fiel testimonio en el Archivo General de la
Administración. Después de la guerra estuvo exiliado en México, donde
llegó en 1939 a bordo del Sinaia

Vintage photography Beni-bu-Iacob Morocco.c 1940
In 1928 King Alfonso XIII created the National Tourism Board "Patronato Nacional de Turismo" (remember that tourism hotels are created in 1926) with the primary purpose of making known to all travelers Spain towns and monuments
Its predecessor was the National Commission of Tourism was created in 1905 by the Count of Romanones. Remember also, as background, that Spain was popular throughout Europe in the nineteenth century to be covered and inspiring travelers notables such as Manet, Teofilo Gautier or Washington Irving.
Photographs of the Directorate General of Tourism Board before, were a commission that became the leading photographers of each region at that time.
These photographs of the Directorate General of Tourism were to be used as the image of Spain in books and posters throughout the Spanish territory and all the tourist events that began to perform in the second half of the twentieth century.
These photos of Spain include both monuments as people with special emphasis on country work and the sea labours when they were being replaced by more modern industrial processes.
The general size of these photographs of the Directorate General of Tourism is 18x24 cm or 20x26 cm. They are usually stapled to a card which states the place, date and photographer who does it, sometimes even include some sort of comment.
These photographs of the Directorate General of Tourism as I used for the promotion of Spain and therefore may have been used for both posters to books to be supplied directly to individuals or institutions.
Some of the noted photographers who made these pictures of the Directorate General of Tourism are:
- * Photographer Mateo with pictures of Malaga
- * Kindel ( Joaquin del Palacio) with pictures of Madrid and Ibiza,
- *Arranz with pictures of Granada (Pampaneira for example)
- * Lladó with photos of Ceuta and Morocco
- * Rafael Romero Urbistondo with pictures of Madrid
- * Ruiz bar with photographs of La Alberca,
- * Verdugo photographs of Andalucia (Vejer de la Frontera)
- * E. De la Vega with pictures of Lerida,
- * Virgilio Muro with the typical landscape ( molinos de viento) of La Mancha,
- * Ksado with its famous photograph of the Rua del Villar Santiago de Compostela,
- * Garrabella was also editor of postcards also worked as a photographer for the D. G. Tourism
I note especially two great photographers taking photographs for the Directorate General of Tourism: Catalá Roca Ortiz Echagüe.
Noted, finally, that his tourist status does not remove the quality of the artwork of the photos, and ethnographic character and crafts people today no longer has not been sufficiently studied.
Perhaps
this is due to the image we have of these photos as "Official Spain"
makes us ignore its value, simply, artistic, and coincide in time with
the early work of foreign photographers showed another image of Spain from 1950 (remember the story of E. Smith for Life magazine)
Archive of the Directorate General of Tourism is located in Alcalá de Henares in the Archives of the Administration.
