Lot 4007, Auction  124, Béchard, Henri, Views of Egypt

Views of Egypt. 1870s. 4 albumen prints mounted to board. Each ca. 27 x 38 cm (35,2 x 46 cm). Each with photographer's signature in the negative in lower right corner, as well as numbered and titled in the negative in lower left corner.

Henri Béchard produced some of the most evocative photographs of Egypt. Unlike the more prolific studios of Sebah, Bonfils, Arnoux, and Zangaki, Béchard’s studio operated only during the 1870s and 1880s, making his works less common. The prints offered here are signed in the negative by H. (Henri) Béchard, though some are also signed by Émile Béchard, who may have been his brother or possibly even the same person. – Some surface scuff marks and very light signs of fading along edges, otherwise strong prints with a rich chocolate-brown tone and in very good condition.
