AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Jean Ribière is a French photographer and photojournalist still relatively little known to the general public, but highly respected in the professional circle.
Parcours
Born in Niort in 1922, he began very early in journalism with L’Indépendant des Pyrénées-Orientales from 1940.
In 1944, he teamed up with his wife, journalist Micheline Vialle, to found their own agency, Ribière Presse Photos, distributing their reports in numerous French and international media (L’Express, Paris Match, BBC, etc.).
Travail photographique
His body of work covers several major axes:
• Occupied and liberated France (1940s)
• Daily life and the French regions (1950s–70s)
• Traditions, trades, rural world
• Sport (rugby, cycling, automobile) and judicial chronicles
He situates himself within a humanist tradition close to figures such as Robert Doisneau or Henri Cartier-Bresson, with a keen eye on ordinary people and society.

Seller's Story
THE TAYLOR GALLERY WORKSHOP
The Atelier / Galerie Taylor, located at 7, on the eponymous street in the 10th arrondissement in Paris, is a friendly place dedicated to photography. It was created thanks to image enthusiasts, José Nicolas, photographer and manager of the place with the support of Jean Vinégla.
Located a stone's throw from Place de la République, between rue du Château-d'eau and rue René-Boulanger, the place is dynamic, atypical and warm, resolutely turned towards sharing and mutual discovery of images at the 'international.
The Atelier / Galerie Taylor is familiarly inclined to exhibit film photography while remaining open to the wide range of contemporary imaging techniques.
It presents well-known and emerging photographers, with the aim of always surprising and arousing the curiosity of collectors and visitors.
Since its opening in September 2019, the Atelier / Galerie Taylor has carved out a good reputation, going from being a confidential place to a showroom recognized by professionals and collectors, both for the choice of its programming and for the quality of the prints on display.
