The collection consists of thirty-two 9x13 inch untitled digital color inkjet photographs taken by Benjamin Lowy, documenting the U.S. military presence in Iraq from 2003 to 2008. The prints are arranged in two series: Windows and Nightvision. Images in the Windows series were taken from the bulletproof windows of the armored Humvees in which Lowy spent most of his time while on missions in Iraq; they depict street scenes with Iraqi civilians, tanks, soldiers, checkpoints, military impoundments, street life, urban Iraqi culture, and a war-ravaged Iraqi landscape. Taken through U.S. military-issue night vision goggles, photographs in the Nightvision series reveal greenish images of late-night raids, prisoners and soldiers, landscapes, families, women, and street scenes. The images in this collection were published in 2011 as a photobook titled Iraq | Perspectives. Acquired as part of the Archive of Documentary Arts at Duke University.
This series, consisting of 16 color digital inkjet prints, stems from images taken from the bulletproof windows of the armored Humvees in which Lowy spent most of his time while on missions in Iraq. This perspective was necessary since Lowy was unable to tour the streets of Iraq without protection. The Humvee window, evidenced in each image of this subseries, came to represent for Lowy the barrier between the Americans and Iraqis. The images portray not only street scenes with Iraqi civilians, notably Iraqi women and children, but also tanks, soldiers, checkpoints, military impoundments, street life, urban Iraqi culture, and a war-ravaged Iraqi landscape.
The images in this series, consisting of 16 color digital inkjet prints, were taken through U.S. military-issue night vision goggles, which Lowy attached to his DSLR camera with a combination of duct tape, dental floss and occasionally chewing gum. The night vision images, with an eerie greenish hue, reveal frightened civilians, abandoned streets, and U.S. soldiers. The images document the impact of war on Iraq. Dominant subjects include families, late-night raids on Iraqi dwellings, interactions between soldiers and prisoners, Iraqi landscapes, and street scenes.

Cuban people emigrated to the United States as refugees in 1980 during the Mariel Boatlift.

Collection comprises 94 albumen photographs (22 x 28 cm) of Egypt, mounted in two volumes. For the photographs, Hippolyte Arnoux teamed up with the Zangaki photographic studio, probably during the 1860s. Images include mosques at Assan, Hambro, and El Azhar, along with the Palace of Shubra, the Cairo Citadel, Luxor, Thebes, Colossi of Memnon, Edfu, Philae, Karnak, and other monuments and temples, as well as many ancient Egyptian bas reliefs and sculpture. Arnoux's photographs of the Suez Canal are also present. The compositions often include every day Egyptians or street scenes. Many of the photographs were numbered and labeled in French on the negative; others feature brief, handwritten French captions in black ink. The photographs in these volumes were likely selected by an unknown purchaser to be bound together.
