[1/5] Visitors attend the preview of the "Loving" exhibition, which shows photographs of men in love spanning from 1850s to 1950s from a collection of Hugh Nine hugs Neal Treadwell at the Rath Museum in Geneva, Switzerland, June 7, 2023. "Our mind reels at what might have been going through their heads at the time," said Nini, who with Treadwell has collected photographs of men in love for more than two decades. In 2020, the U.S. couple published "Loving", a volume with hundreds of snapshots and portraits of displays of love between men taken between the 1850s and 1950s. Nini and Treadwell first unearthed the photographs at flea markets and family archives, and later online and at auctions. "What we've discovered through this collection is that just like today, these men, these couples had friends, allies and family who supported them," Nini said.

[1/5] Visitors look at paintings from the collection of the National Art Gallery of Kyiv during the "From Dusk To Dawn" exhibition at the Rath Museum in Geneva, Switzerland February 22, 2023. The museum in Geneva, which took in paintings from Madrid's Prado Museum during the Spanish civil war in the 1930s, sent packing materials to ensure safe transport. The Musee Rath, which hosts the Musee d'Art et d'Histoire's temporary exhibitions, is now showing "From Dusk to Dawn", showcasing works by Ukrainian painters from the Kyiv gallery. Vakulenko said it was impossible to insure the paintings crossing Ukraine, so the shipment was accompanied by security on its two-day journey to the Polish border. "The most important thing was keeping secrecy of the cargo's movement on the territory of Ukraine," Vakulenko said.
