He created anurban estate complete with 10.5 acres ofworking farmland, formal gardens, greenhouses,stables, barns, and pastures.Upon his death <strong>Eastman</strong> bequeathed his home, gardens, andgrounds to the University of Rochester. Within 10 years the universitytransferred the property to a board of trustees formed in 1947 toestablish a museum of photography and motion pictures. The newmuseum would honor <strong>Eastman</strong> and attract precious artifacts fromaround the world creating a center of study, care, and exhibition.The original photography collection was in many ways a collectionof collections, including Civil War photographs by AlexanderGardner; Kodak’s historical collection; and the vast Gabriel Cromercollection from France. Building on that foundation, entire archives,corporate collections, and artists’ lifetime portfolios have beendonated to the <strong>Eastman</strong> <strong>House</strong> in the ensuing decades. Recentacquisitions are the estate of Edward Steichen, the archives of theTechnicolor Corporation, the Kodak Colorama collection, and MerchantIvory Productions archive.In the mid-1980s limited storage space threatened the best care ofthe collections and a 73,000-square-foot addition was built to housenew Museum’s archives, galleries, and library. An exacting restorationof <strong>Eastman</strong>’s house and grounds was also completed, greatlyreturning the home to its original grandeur.Today <strong>Eastman</strong> <strong>House</strong> has unparalleledcollections of 400,000 photographs, fromdaguerreotype to digital, by 9,000 photographers.Most every master of the mediumand the various processes that they used arerepresented. Included are major collectionsof Ansel Adams’s and Alfred Steiglitz’s earlyand vintage prints; 19th-century photographsof the American West; early French photography;and one of the largest collectionsof daguerreotypes in the world, includingthe 1,200-daguerreotype archive of Southworth& Hawes. <strong>Here</strong> you also find the FirstPhotograph of Lightning, the first photographtaken in Japan, and a daguerrotype ofDaguerre himself.<strong>Eastman</strong> <strong>House</strong> is unique in its intertwiningof collections among photography, cameras, and motion pictures.The other <strong>Eastman</strong> <strong>House</strong> collections include 20,000 items of cameratechnology—the world’s largest—with features such as a NASALunar Orbiter, the Speed Graphic camera used by Joe Rosenthal tophotograph the flag-raising at Iwo Jima, and a three-strip Technicolormovie camera; 30,000 motion picture titles—including thecollections of Cecil B. DeMille and Martin Scorsese and cameranegatives to such classics as The Wizard of Oz and Gone With theWind—and 4 million publicity stills and posters; and one of theworld’s most comprehensive libraries of photographic books, manuscripts,and journals.The museum offers world-leading graduate and post-graduate programs.The L. Jeffrey Selznick School of Film Preservation, launchedin 1996 as the world’s first permanent school of film preservation,offers both a one-year certificate program and a two-year master’sdegree program in conjunction with the University of Rochester.A master’s degree program in Photographic Preservation andCollections Management has been offered since 2004 in conjunctionwith Ryerson University in Toronto. Both programs combine studyof preservation practices with intense study of the collections.A world leader in photograph conservation and preservation formore than three decades, <strong>Eastman</strong> <strong>House</strong> was the first institutionto offer classes and training in these disciplines.
