Bridgeman Images Partners with the Ingebrigtson 16mm Film Archive Project & Collection

Bridgeman Images is pleased to announce its latest partnership with The Ingebrigtson 16mm Film Archive Project & Collection, a home movie collection showcasing everyday life in northern Canada, including shots of notable faces and its unique wildlife.

The Ingebrigtson 16mm Film Archive Project & Collection, currently maintained by Sheila Ingebrigtson-Stewart, is an archived film collection capturing an early and mid-century context of an immigrant family’s life as they settled, worked, and overcame hardships in a northern Canadian climate and in isolated communities. From the celebrities and officials who visited, to the wildlife and landscapes they encountered, amateur video footage captured a unique and changing historical context.

Sheila, a second-generation Canadian and the youngest of her immigrant parents, has extended her passion for lifelong learning, teaching, research, and writing into creating a tapestry of intertwined visual media and memories to help weave the past and help connect its threads to the present and future.  

To peruse the Ingebritson family's chilly weather memories, just in time for the winter season, head here. For any inquiries and more information, please reach out to nysales@bridgemanimages.com.
