EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned French comedian Jean-Francois Berthelier alongside the talented photographer Nadar, also known as Gaspard Felix Tournachon. Taken in Paris, France between 1856 and 1859, this salted paper print measures approximately 24.2 by 18.9 cm. The image captures a moment frozen in time, revealing the essence of both subjects. Berthelier's expressive face exudes theatricality and humor, hinting at his comedic prowess that delighted audiences during his era. His eyes sparkle with mischief while his mouth curves into a mischievous smile. Beside him stands Nadar, holding his camera with an air of confidence and creativity. Known for pushing boundaries in photography, Nadar was not only a skilled artist but also an influential figure in capturing portraits of notable personalities from various fields. The composition is masterfully executed; the lighting casts dramatic shadows on their faces while highlighting their features with precision. The choice to present this photograph as a salted paper print adds depth to its vintage charm and evokes nostalgia for a bygone era. This remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection offers viewers an intimate glimpse into two prominent figures of their time – one who brought laughter to many through comedy and another who captured moments through his lens that would be cherished for generations to come.
