In the year of the 100th anniversary of his birth, the rich photographic archive of Nace Šumi stimulated the idea to review the state of the architectural heritage at the Kranj Branch of the IPCHS.
Selected archive images, made from black and white 6×6 negatives, are shown in the company of cut-outs from digital records made this year. The changing heritage over a period of fifty years is thus shown through an elegant and precise record. Each heritage has its own story, which is preserved for posterity through photographic documentation.
