AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Circa 1880, about 19x25 cm.
"Mauresque", a very beautiful portrait from the end of the nineteenth century, attributed to Jean Garrigues.
A very fine albumen print from the period in very good condition, free and not mounted (rare).
Excellent preservation of contrasts, gray nuances and levels of detail.

Jean Garrigues was active in Tunisia at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, in a context of photographic growth linked to the protectorate and the development of tourism. Photographer and publisher, he produced urban views, scenes of daily life and portraits distributed as prints and postcards.
His work is characterized by a clear light and a straightforward composition, attentive to architecture, markets and local figures, through a production that is at once documentary and commercial.

Will be shipped with its neutral-pH sleeve (ideal for a collection in good condition).
