Abstract

This paper aims to analyze part of Christiano Júnior’s works, who lived in Brazil during the second half of the nineteenth century. The images here presented and analyzed are extremely relevant, they were originated from a specific demand, that means photographs of a popular type. Christiano produced some of the several portraits of the slave population, which lived in Rio de Janeiro city during the 1860’s. Today such photographs are the only opportunity to know this population and its traits.
