Taureau Landais. 1856. Varnished salted paper print, mounted to board. 19,6 x 27 cm (29,7 x 37 cm). Photographer’s signature stamp and number in the negative in lower right, titled “Taureau Landais” in black ink below the image on the mount, numbered “33” in pencil.

Adrien Tournachon, younger brother of the famed Nadar, briefly collaborated with him before a legal dispute in 1855 barred Adrien from using the name “Nadar jeune.” He later focused on documentary photography, notably producing over 120 collodion wet plate negatives of prize-winning livestock at the 1856 Paris agricultural fair, with around 50 included in a presentation album for the Minister of Agriculture. The present print was made using the vernis-cuit technique, which imparts a rich, varnished-leather appearance to the paper. – A few light pressure marks, slightly faded in some areas, otherwise a rich dark print in very good condition.
