      • Felix Nadar (1820-1910) - Untitled (Portrait of a fashionable woman), 1890s
        Jun. 18, 2024

        Felix Nadar (1820-1910) - Untitled (Portrait of a fashionable woman), 1890s

        Est: €400 - €600

        Vintage platinum print cm 32 x 22 | 12.6 x 8.6 in. Signed in pencil on the image Considered not unjustly one of the greatest portrait painters of the century, but also a pioneer of modern photography thanks to a studio where work was carried out as in a small industry, Nadar had conceived a style that involved going beyond superficiality to obtain portraits that reflected the personality and taste of those who, in front of his lens, were to become not objects but subjects. In the work proposed here, the way of embellishing the portrait and making it unique through platinum printing is also remarkable.

        FÉLIX NADAR 1820-1910 Sarah Bernhardt in ‘Tosca’ 1887

        Est: €4,000 - €6,000

        Stampa fotografica vintage all'albumina.  30 x 18 cm Applicata su cartoncino recante firma 'Nadar' e l'indirizzo del suo atelier fotografico (51, Rue D'Anjou); inscritta a penna nera.  “Quello che non si impara […] è l’intelligenza morale del tuo soggetto – è quell’intuizione che ti mette in comunione col modello, te lo fa giudicare, ti guida verso le sue abitudini, le sue idee, il suo carattere, e ti permette di ottenere, non già, banalmente e a caso, una riproduzione plastica qualsiasi […], bensì la somiglianza più favorevole, la somiglianza intima.” Per Nadar, uno dei più celebri ritrattisti e fotografi francesi della seconda metà del XIX secolo, il ritratto è, dunque, un esercizio che mira alla "somiglianza intima", all’interiorità, al ritratto psicologico, reso attraverso la sobrietà delle pose e la plasticità creata dalla luce. I suoi ritratti sono tra le prime testimonianze delle possibilità artistiche della fotografia, in particolare attraverso il controllo dell'illuminazione. Il nuovo mezzo si mostra essere ben più di una semplice tecnica di riproduzione meccanica della natura; esso si rivela in grado di cogliere la complessità espressiva dei soggetti che ritrae, e ciò sembra rispondere agli interrogativi che la nuova scoperta aveva sollevato fin dalla sua nascita, e cioè se la fotografia fosse una semplice tecnica di registrazione del reale o se potesse essere considerata come un mezzo di espressione plastica a sé stante.  - Vintage albumen print.  11.81 x 7.09 in. Applied on carboard bearing 'Nadar' signature and his atelier address (51, Rue D'Anjou); inscribed in black pen.  "What you do not learn [...] is the moral intelligence of your subject - it is that intuition that puts you in communion with your model, makes you judge him, guides you towards his habits, his ideas, his character, and allows you to obtain, not just any plastic reproduction [...], but the most favourable resemblance, the most intimate resemblance". For Nadar, one of the most famous French portrait painters and photographers of the second half of the 19th century, the portrait was thus an exercise in "intimate resemblance", interiority, a psychological portrait, rendered through the sobriety of the poses and the plasticity created by the light. His portraits are among the first testimonies to the artistic possibilities of photography, in particular through the control of lighting. The new medium proves to be much more than a simple technique of mechanical reproduction of nature; it proves capable of capturing the expressive complexity of the subjects it portrays, and this seems to answer the questions that the new discovery had raised since its inception, namely whether photography was a simple technique for recording reality or whether it could be considered as a means of plastic expression in its own right.

Published in two concurrent sections or series – a ?rst series "Littérateurs, Musicians, Etc." and a second series "Peintres et Sculpteurs," generally appeared on alternate weeks. The full run amounted to a total of 241 portraits issued in 13 volumes. The photographs differed notably, inasmuch as those in the ?rst series (included in this catalogue) were each represented by a large format, full-page portrait "hors texte" (an image printed on paper of especially high quality) generally 24X18 cm, within an ornamental border. In contrast, the subjects in the second series were represented by smaller portraits, on average 12 x 8 cm., mounted within the text.
