Baron Louis-Adolphe Humbert de Molard: Man Smoking with a Hooka

Posted by Alex Novak on October 9, 2011 at 17:41 in Paper Negatives

Paper negative, 6-1/8 x 8-1/2 in. (156 x 216 mm), 1844c/1844c, unmounted. #12455. A very important and classic paper negative by Humbert de Molard (occasionally spelt Mollard), a pioneer of French photography whose photographic works are some of the most difficult to find. Any work by this photographer outside of institutions is exceedingly rare. See: Prestige de La Photo, Nov. 1978, "Humbert de Molard (1800-1874)" for more information.
