Abstract

Béla Flerkó and Vera Bárdos documented their lives and travels in photo albums from the 1930s. The 43 albums preserved in the Pécs University Historical Collection can be divided into three main types: family albums, albums of the Anatomy Institute of the Medical University of Pécs, and travel albums. With the help of the photos placed in the albums, it is possible to trace the life path, network of relationships, and changes in the living space of a 20th-century teacher-researcher doctor in Pécs. In addition to official trips, private trips also appear in the travel albums, documenting the course of each trip in detail.
