réf. 148780GONCOURT Edmond de. Portrait for La Galerie Contemporaine by Nadar. Woodburytype print with artist's information printed on mount matted and framed in polished dark wood. Paris: Nadar ND. A visually arresting portrait of Edmond de Goncourt by famed portrait photographer Nadar Gaspard-Felix Tournachon 1820-1910. "Nadar's notoriety in photography came after successful careers first in writing and publishing and then in caricature. Nadar's turn to portrait photography appears to be a natural progression from his work in caricature." "Galerie Contemporaine stands out due to its ambitious scope as well as for the quality of the photographic imagery it contained. Underpinned by a certain patriotic sentiment and a more sophisticated approach to celebrity the subtitle Litteraire Artistique declares the work's focus of interest to be high art. In fact Galerie Contemporaine evolved into the most impressive set of celebrity portraits published in nineteenth-century France forming a vital visual record of the leading figures who shaped public life in science and politics as well as the arts during the Second Empire and the emergent Third Republic."

Nadar whose real name was Felix Tournachon 1820-1910 was a conspicuous even astonishing presence in nineteenth-century France. Engaging and quick-witted he invented himself over and over as a bohemian writer a journalist a romantic utopian a caricaturist a portrait photographer a balloonist an entrepreneur a prophet of aeronautics. The name "Nadar" was on everyone's lips. Today it is Nadar's photography that is remembered. His sitters who were often his friends included the great men and women of his time: Dumas Rossini Baudelaire Sarah Bernhardt Daumier Berlioz George Sand Delacroix. Nadar's legendary name has been attached not only to his original photographs but to reprints copies and a great deal of studio work. For that reason this volume exactingly reproduces some one hundred photographs from the years 1854-60 the period of his earliest and finest photography allowing viewers to become familiar with the subtle light and balanced velvety tones that distinguish Nadar's original work. Accompanying the photographs are essays that shed new light on the many facets of Nadar. Contents as follows: A portrait of Nadar / Maria Morris Hambourg -- Nadar and the art of portrait photography / Françoise Heilbrun -- Nadar and the artistic life of his time / Philippe Néagu -- Sorting out Nadar / Ulrich Keller -- Beyond the portrait beyond the artist / Sylvie Aubenas -- When I was a photographer : the anatomy of a myth / André Rouillé -- The Nadar studio dispersed and recovered / André Jammes. Catalog of an exhibition held at the Musée d'Orsay Paris from June 7-Sept 11 1994; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art New York from April 14-July 9 1995./ Includes bibliographical references p-257-263 and index./ Also issued online.

1864réf. 182678Various publishers in or near Brussels: c. 1864. The Brussels ballooning buzz Scarce material capturing the excitement generated by the launch of Le Géant 6000 cubic metres in size and equipped with a huge cabin to celebrate Belgian National Day. As much a publicist as an aviator Nadar turned the event into an epic spectacle the crowds teeming behind barriers. He shared a passion for the skies with Jules Verne who drew on Nadar's exploits for his writings. Born Gaspard-Félix Tournachon Nadar 1820-1910 was also a pioneering photographer taking some of the earliest aerial shots of Paris. Le Géant was commissioned from the balloonist Eugène Goddard in 1863 and was first launched in Paris in October of the same year in front of 80000 people. A second launch drew half a million people setting the stage for the scenes in Brussels. Among those struck by the sight was Jules Verne who had established Societe d'aviation with Nadar in 1862. Verne based Five Weeks in a Balloon 1863 on Le Géant and Nadar appeared as the character Michael Ardan in Verne's From the Earth to the Moon 1865. The publications give information on the balloonist's background and his visit their excitable tone sometimes crossing over into satire. a Le Ballon Le Géant et Nadar Pérégrinations Accidents Notices biographiques etc. etc. Brussels: P.
