    Photograph of Rococo style furniture

    Paris: NP, C1880. An attractive photograph of three pieces of Rococo furniture. Numbered by hand #385 N.D. There is no indication what this means, it could be a furniture seller's reference, or a photo library archive. We suspect the former (the temptation to assume that N.D. is no date should be resisted, as in French this would be S.D.) The photograph has some light creasing and marking to it. The furniture set in the image is in the French Louis XV (Rococo) style, characterized by its ornate carvings, cabriole legs, and shell motifs, all hallmarks of mid-18th-century French decorative arts. 24cm x 29cm.

Nous pensons qu'il s'agit de la première hypothèse (il faut résister à la tentation de supposer que N.D. est sans date, car en français, il s'agirait de S.D.) La photographie présente quelques plis et marques légères. L'ensemble de meubles figurant sur l'image est de style Louis XV (rococo), caractérisé par des sculptures ornementales, des pieds cabriole et des motifs de coquilles, autant de caractéristiques des arts décoratifs français du milieu du XVIIIe siècle. 24cm x 29cm.

    Photograph of the inside of the Mezquita de Córdoba

    Cordoba (Spain): NA, 1880. An attractive photograph of the pillars inside the Mezquita de Córdoba (The mosque). By an unknown photographer. Circa 1880-1890. Pasted onto a stiff grey mounting card, with calligraphic title beneath ("Del inre af Kathedralen i Cordova"). It bears the number 8 in the negative, so may be a tourist photograph. The photograph is in good condition with a couple of small nicks to the edges. The mounting card is in good clean condition. Dating from this period, it is difficult to distinguish between and albumen print and an early silver gelatin card mounted photograph. We lean towards the latter. Photograph size is 220mm x 280mm.

The photograph shows a poster of Hitler hiding behind a mask of Charles de Gaulle. He is wearing the Cross of Lorraine as his armband. (The Free French forces in world war 2, under de Gaulle, had used this symbol). This is pinned over a background which states "CRS SS" multiple times. The CRS (compagnies républicaines de sécurité) was the National Reserve Force to deal with strikes and demonstrations. In fact this slogan dates back to 1948 when the CRS was first formed. The wall also shows a hand written sign for a manifestation in the evening of the 19th at St Lazare. Public demonstrations were often (and are still often) held in the space in front of the St Lazare station. This is almost certainly a large print of a reportage / press photograph of the time. In red ink to the reverse is written "68." The central poster was used in the 1968 student riots, and although we have been unable to trace this photograph, there is an "internet ghost" of it, which states it was taken in May 1968. Condition is excellent, with no significant marks or dirt to it.

    . Grande photographie argentique noir et blanc (40 cm x 29,5 cm) d'un mur de Paris en mai 1968. La photographie montre une affiche d'Hitler cachée derrière un masque de Charles de Gaulle, qui porte la Croix de Lorraine en guise de brassard. Ce dernier porte la Croix de Lorraine en guise de brassard (les forces françaises libres de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, sous la direction de de Gaulle, avaient utilisé ce symbole). Le tout est épinglé sur un fond où l'on peut lire plusieurs fois « CRS SS ». Les CRS (compagnies républicaines de sécurité) étaient la force de réserve nationale chargée de gérer les grèves et les manifestations. En fait, ce slogan remonte à 1948, date de la création des CRS. Le mur montre également une pancarte écrite à la main pour une manifestation dans la soirée du 19 à St Lazare. Les manifestations publiques étaient souvent (et sont encore souvent) organisées dans l'espace devant la gare St Lazare. Il s'agit très certainement d'un grand tirage d'un reportage ou d'une photographie de presse de l'époque. Au verso, on peut lire « 68 » à l'encre rouge. L'affiche centrale a été utilisée lors des émeutes étudiantes de 1968, et bien que nous n'ayons pas été en mesure de retrouver cette photographie, il existe un « fantôme internet » de celle-ci, qui indique qu'elle a été prise en mai 1968. L'état de l'affiche est excellent, elle ne présente aucune marque ou salissure significative.

The Château de Chenonceau, often called the "Ladies' Château," is a stunning 16th-century Renaissance masterpiece in France's Loire Valley, uniquely spanning the River Cher on a bridge-like structure. Built primarily between 1514 and 1522 by Thomas Bohier and his wife Catherine Briçonnet, it replaced an earlier medieval fortress. It is called the Ladies Château as successive women shaped its legacy, including Diane de Poitiers, who added the river-spanning bridge (1556–1559) and created extensive gardens, and Catherine de Médicis, who built the grand gallery (1570–1576).

    . Première édition. Une jolie photographie originale au papier albuminé du château de Chenonceau. Bon tirage, net et attrayant. Collée sur un fond en papier gris, avec le titre en bas. Le papier gris présente quelques petites entailles et éraflures sur les bords. Le tirage est en excellent état. La photographie mesure 25 cm x 36,5 cm. La feuille mesure 30 cm x 41,5 cm. Le château de Chenonceau, souvent appelé le « château des dames », est un magnifique chef-d'œuvre de la Renaissance du XVIe siècle situé dans la vallée de la Loire, en France, qui enjambe de manière unique le Cher sur une structure en forme de pont. Construit principalement entre 1514 et 1522 par Thomas Bohier et son épouse Catherine Briçonnet, il a remplacé une ancienne forteresse médiévale. Il est appelé le château des dames car ce sont des femmes qui ont façonné son héritage, notamment Diane de Poitiers, qui a ajouté le pont enjambant la rivière (1556-1559) et créé de vastes jardins, et Catherine de Médicis, qui a construit la grande galerie (1570-1576).

  • Playboy by NEWTON, Helmut.
    NEWTON, Helmut.
    Playboy

    Paris: E.P.A. Hachette, 2005. First Edition thus (French edition). A retrospective of Helmut Newton's work, showing his theatrical / cinematic approach to portraiture. The book and dust wrapper are both almost as new, with just a fractional handling. No significant marks or wear. Perhaps our imagination, but the dust wrapper and matching boards seem to have a much darker, golden tone than the US edition. Although the introduction and other text is in French - this hardly matters, as this book is all about the photography. Contents include Motels - Spring summer fashion - Kinski revealed - Living dolls - Prussian guard - At your service - The angels - Young and old - The Newton girls - Living…

    . Première édition donc (édition française). Une rétrospective du travail d'Helmut Newton, montrant son approche théâtrale et cinématographique du portrait. Le livre et la jaquette sont presque comme neufs, avec juste une petite manipulation. Aucune marque ou usure significative. Peut-être est-ce le fruit de notre imagination, mais la jaquette et les planches assorties semblent avoir un ton beaucoup plus sombre et doré que l'édition américaine. Bien que l'introduction et les autres textes soient en français, cela n'a guère d'importance, car ce livre est entièrement consacré à la photographie. Au sommaire : Motels - Mode printemps-été - Kinski révélé - Poupées vivantes - Garde prussienne - A votre service - Les anges - Jeunes et vieux - Les filles Newton - Vivre et manger - 10 questions - Loving ladies - Playmates par Helmut Newton - Désirs de demain - A votre beauté - Newton Physics - Postface. 176 pages. 310 x 240 mm
