Benjamin Diederik "Bob" Schalkwijk (1933) is a Dutch photographer who lives and works in Mexico since 1959. His lifestyle and travel photography has been called a graphic testimony of Mexico's identity, transformations and continuities.[1][2] Notable is also his work in architecture and still life photography, especially of objects of art.[3] His archive contains over 600,000 images with a digital catalogue that has obtained public and private funding for its development and dissemination.[4]
