In January 2015, the Museum inaugurated the exhibition "The world upside down: the calotype in Spain.", in which numerous images related to the Alhambra were exhibited, evidencing the importance of the monument as topic of the first photographs on paper made in Spain throughout the central decades of the nineteenth century. The board of trustees of the Alhambra and Generalife has included in its programming for 2017 a replacement of this exhibition, although adapting the original contents to the specificity of the Alhambra and the new exhibition space.
