[1898].\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst edition. 280x190mm. pp. 48. Text in French. 28 photographs included in the text and seven plates. Original illustrated paper covers, with some soiling and a tear to the joint with lower cover. Internally near fine. A nice copy of a rare book which explains the techniques of photographing the female form both nude and clothed \"en plein air\". Paul Bergon (1863-1912) was both a photographer and a naturalist specialising in images of orchids and nudes. The photographs are beautiful, Bergon being an exponent of 'pictorialism', a movement that sought to create more painterly images in photography rather than simply record the moment. The photographs in this volume capture perfectly Bergon's artistic connections between naturism and naturalism.","brand":"BERGON, Paul et Rene Le Begue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41774443397311,"sku":"3663","price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1484\/0910\/products\/20220704_175244.jpg?v=1656953714","url":"https:\/\/voewoodrarebooks.com\/products\/art-photographique-le-nu-le-drape-en-plein-air","provider":"Voewood Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
