The “Childhood” catalogue presents exhibits and archives from Poland from the collections of the National Ethnographic Museum in Warsaw in a cross-sectional way. The catalog presents all the objects related to the period of childhood from the Museum's collection: toys, clothes, furniture and appliances, as well as works of art and photographs. It is an extensive, 600-page compendium of knowledge about childhood ethnography.
The idea to create a comprehensive, cross-sectional catalogue stemmed from the change in the approach to presenting museum collections, the transition from the material, functional perspective to the holistic and narrative one. Singling out the objects with the same theme and presenting them as a catalogue will form the foundation for further systematic development of the collection and preparation of exhibitions. Moreover, we hope it will facilitate research, inspire studies, theses and publications.
