Cities Around the World presents over 6,100
photographic images from the slide collections
of the American Geographic Society Library.
The images selected for this project focus on
architecture, city life, people, transportation
and other aspects of urban development, such
as neighborhoods, commercial streets, and
business districts. The pictures were taken
by two photographers, Harrison Forman and
Harold Mayer between 1942 and 1994. The
digital collection provides access to photographs
of over 450 cities worldwide. In addition to
present-day metropolitan areas, this collection
also features ancient cities and deserted settlements,
including Carthage, Great Zimbabwe, Machupicchu,
and Persepolis.

The images for this project were drawn from two
slide collections, the Harrison Forman Collection
and the Harold Mayer Collection, housed at the
American Geographic Society Library, University
of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Libraries. The goal of this
project is to provide a comprehensive coverage of
cities worldwide as reflected in the photographic
collections of the American Geographical Society
Library.
