“We have to make Vogue into a Louvre.”
Edward Steichen to Edna Woodman Chase, 1920s
These words said by Steichen to the first editor in chief of Vogue aptly summarized the revolution started by Condé Nast, both in fashion as well as in photography more generally, when the publisher acquired the prestigious Vogue masthead in 1909. From then on, the story of fashion was no longer told exclusively in delicate nineteenth-century illustrations, but also by great international photographers with creative license. Edward Steichen was one of the first photographer to shoot for Vogue, accepti...
L’exposition L’objet photographique : une invention permanente propose de découvrir l’ensemble des dispositifs de prise de vue (contact, sténopé, objectif photographique...) et des processus de fabrication ou de modification des divers «objets» (positifs directs, négatifs, tirages...) qui constituent l’atelier du photographe.

Le Baron Adolphe De Meyer est considéré historiquement comme le premier photographe de mode.
Adolphe De Meyer suggère la ligne du couturier représenté dans des ambiances floues et crée, par des effets de transparence, une impression de légèreté.
Précurseur de la photographie contemporaine, il s’engage dans un travail de la lumière où il parvient à capter la transparence dont il fait l’élément clé de ses compositions.
Le Baron Adolphe De Meyer domine, entre 1913 et 1924, dans le style pictorialiste, ce mouvement apparu à la fin du 19e siècle qui donne une dimension artistique à la photographie.
Dès ses débuts, et plus spécialement grâce à s...
