Born in Padua, Osvaldo Böhm was an art critic, publisher, and photographer. After purchasing the collection of Carlo Naya, who had founded a photography studio c. 1860, Böhm established his own photography firm, O. Böhm Fotografo-Editore, which existed until the 1980's. The firm is sometims refered to as "Archivio Naya-Böhm." The Venetian firm was located in the sestiere of San Marco at S. Moise 1349-50. Also active in the studio were Böhm's son-in-law Giuseppe Turio and grandson Francesco Turio Böhm, who still maintains the glass negatives. Since 1980 Francesco Böhm has continued contributing his own photographs to the archive. The Naya-Bohm Archive officially closed in 2005.
