"The Family of Man" Exhibit

The castle at Clervaux holds the permanent home of the photo exhibition titled, "The Family of Man". This collection of photographs, compiled by Edward Steichen, contains 503 images taken by 273 photographers in 63 countries, and is considered by Steichen to be "the culmination of his career". The photos offer a snapshot of human life, from birth, life, marriage, love, joy, sadness, despair, tragedy, innocence, death, -- in short, the entire human experience. Many of the images are famous. We thoroughly enjoyed the exhibit.
