AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Circa 1900, 22x28 cm.
"Nomadic Desert Camp" (Campement nomade du désert), a very beautiful portrait attributed to Alexandre Bougault (XIX).
Very beautiful gelatin-silver print, in very good condition, loose (not mounted, rare), and with excellent preservation of contrasts, gray tones and levels of detail.
Based in Biskra at the end of the 19th century, Alexandre Bougault opened a workshop there in the heart of an oasis then very frequented by European travelers. He developed a local production mixing portraits, religious figures, and scenes of daily life.
His photographs are distinguished by sober framing, soft light, and meticulous attention to faces, fabrics, and textures, giving his subjects an embodied intensity.
Small PR conservatory, not to be missed.
Will be shipped with its case and its neutral pH cardboard backing (ideal for a collection kept in good condition).
