Christiano Junior (photographer)


José Christiano de Freitas Henriques Junior (Ilha das Flores, Azores Islands, Portugal 1832 - Asunción, Paraguay 1902), mostly known as Christiano Junior, was one of the most prominent photographers in Argentina in the 19th century.
During a time, Christiano Junior was associated with British colleague Alexander Witcomb, who would later acquire Junior's studio and photographies, adding them to his own material. In 1970, Witcomb's entire artwork became part of the General Archive of the Nation as an evidence of the history of Argentina registered on photographs.
==Biography==
Born in Portugal, he emigrated to Brazil in 1855. It is unclear how Christiano Junior learn the techniques of photography. In 1863 he began its activities in Rio de Janeiro. During that period, the subjects of his photos are mainly slaves and people affected by Lymphatic filariasis.
In 1865 he moved to Buenos Aires with his wife and two children, opening his first studio in 1867. It was located in Florida street N° 150. Soon after he moved to other building due to space reasons. At the beginning of the 1870s, C. Junior opened other studio in Artes street, named "Fotografía de la Infancia" (Childhoold Photography), hosted by his son José V. Freitas Henriques.
Christiano Junior soon gained reputation in the city, being requested by personalities such as Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, Adolfo Alsina, Lucio V. Mansilla and Luis Sáenz Peña among others. Between 1873 and 1875 he took more than 4,000 photos, with an average of 5 customers per day.
Since 1875 Christiano Junior was the official photographer and member of the Sociedad Rural Argentina, even collaborating as a writer. He had a strong interest in agriculture and due his friendship with many managers of the institution he was called for the project.
During 1876 and 1877 the first volumes of a photo album were released. They were part of a project named ''Album de vistas y costumbres de la República Argentina desde el Atlántico a Los Andes'', passing through some cities of Argentina and taking photos of each one of them. With the purpose of making the trip to complete his project, Christiano Junior sold his studio to the Witcomb & Mackern society (predecessor or famous Casa Witcomb) in 1878,
After leaving Buenos Aires, he went on an "artistic tour" (in his own words) visiting the Santa Fe, Córdoba, Mendoza, San Luis, San Juan, Santiago del Estero, Catamarca, Tucumán, Salta and Jujuy provinces. The trip took 4 years.
Nevertheless, the project was not concluded so in 1883 the artist ceased his activity as photographer. Even unfinished, the work made by Christiano Junior during those 4 years is considered one of the most important and ambicious projects in Argentine and Latin America.
Christiano Junior died in Asunción, Paraguay, in 1902.
