1912 * - 1914 Gand, Winkelstraat, "Salle des Notaires"
Founded on 22.11.1912 under the impulsion of Gustave Verhulst (see that name). The aim of the group was "teaching and popularisation of amateur photography". Six founder members: Gustave Verhulst, together with André Dupont, Willem De Backer, Henri Glasmaecker, Cyriel Noterman and Edgar Buysse. Membership rose to 13 in 1913. The club moved to a different location on 28.12.1914 and kept meeting during World War I, despite its equipment being seized by the German occupying forces. The club was revived after World War I and refounded as "Lux Nova" on 14.6.1921, a name it bears to this day.
