Item DetailsArtist: Charles Negre Title: Henry Le Secq at Notre Dame Cathedral, 1851 Medium: Rotogravure, 1964, Netherlands Dimensions: 6.4x8.85" Heat Wax Mounted on 11x14" Conservation Board
Charles Nègre (1820 – 1880) was a pioneering photographer, born in Grasse, France. Nègre started with the daguerreotype process before moving on to calotypes. His "Chimney-Sweeps Walking", an albumen print taken on the Quai Bourbon in 1851, may have been a staged study for a painting, but is nevertheless considered important to photographic history for its being an early instance of an interest in capturing movement and freezing it forever in one moment.
