Description
Sous la Direction de M. Ch. PHILIPPON, Paris et ses environs reproduits par le Daguerréotype, Paris, Chez Aubert et Cie éditeurs, 1840. Traces, foxing and pages detached. As is. N.B. by Jean-Marie PRADES: (...) The engravings are remarkably fine. The figures, carts and horses are added by the engraver and it is noticeable that the scales of proportion are not always respected (...) the names of the photographers are not mentioned. Only the names of the engravers, printers and publishers appear. What is certain is that from 1840 onwards, the Daguerreotype was used for printing, but this practice was little used and quickly abandoned due to the fragility of the medium. Visual and text " Around a collection 2 " JMP Collection Club Niépce Lumière, p. 19. Expert Isabelle Cazeils. Provenance: Jean-Marie PRADES Collection.
