Where is your Photos Library located? Is it on an external drive? If so, how is this external drive formatted? To avoid damaging the Photos Library an external drive must be formatted in either APFS format or Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. Additionally, the drive can not have had Time Machine on it since it was formatted. There have been so many problems with using incompatible drives that the newest macOSs won't even allow a Library on a non-Mac formatted drive to open, since there is a chance of damaging the Photos database.

Have you tried opening the library with the Opiton+Command keys held down to rebuild/repair the library?
