1864182678Various publishers in or near Brussels: c.1864. The Brussels ballooning buzz Scarce material capturing the excitement generated by the launch of Le Géant 6000 cubic metres in size and equipped with a huge cabin to celebrate Belgian National Day. As much a publicist as an aviator Nadar turned the event into an epic spectacle the crowds teeming behind barriers. He shared a passion for the skies with Jules Verne who drew on Nadar's exploits for his writings. Born Gaspard-Félix Tournachon Nadar 1820-1910 was also a pioneering photographer taking some of the earliest aerial shots of Paris. Le Géant was commissioned from the balloonist Eugène Goddard in 1863 and was first launched in Paris in October of the same year in front of 80000 people. A second launch drew half a million people setting the stage for the scenes in Brussels. Among those struck by the sight was Jules Verne who had established Societe d'aviation with Nadar in 1862. Verne based Five Weeks in a Balloon 1863 on Le Géant and Nadar appeared as the character Michael Ardan in Verne's From the Earth to the Moon 1865. The publications give information on the balloonist's background and his visit their excitable tone sometimes crossing over into satire. a Le Ballon Le Géant et Nadar Pérégrinations Accidents Notices biographiques etc. etc. Brussels: P.

185684662Paris: Nadar 1856. Fine. Nadar Paris 1856 6.50 x 10.50 cm une feuille Original albumen carte-de-visite photograph. Salted paper print. One of the first portraits of the poet who was one of the photographer's first subjects. Rare like all the first portraits by Nadar of Vigny. Photograph mounted on rigid gray cardboard extracted from a collector's photograph album. In pen in the lower margin Le Cte Alfred de Vigny and in the right margin NADAR in capitals. One of Nadar's first portraits where his refined style already emerges. ""Nadar photographie ses modèles simplement n'utilisant que la lumière naturelle et zénithale diffusée par les verrières et réfléchie par de grands panneaux mobiles. Les poses à la manière d'Ingres valent surtout pour l'intimité et la complicité qu'il sait créer avec ses sujets. « La photographie est à la portée du premier des imbéciles elle s'apprend en une heure. Ce qui ne s'apprend pas c'est le sentiment de la lumière . et encore moins l'intelligence morale de votre sujet . et la ressemblance intime » dira-t-il. Dans cette période où le portrait s'industrialise dans un académisme convenu Nadar supprime les accessoires et décors conventionnels et refuse la retouche au profit de « l'expression vraie et de cet instant de compréhension qui vous met en contact avec le modèle qui vous aide à le résumer vous guide vers ses idées et son caractère »."" ""Nadar photographs his subjects simply using only natural and zenithal light diffused through glass roofs and reflected by large movable panels. The poses in the manner of Ingres are valuable above all for the intimacy and complicity he knows how to create with his subjects. 'Photography is within reach of the first fool it is learned in an hour. What cannot be learned is the feeling for light . and even less the moral intelligence of your subject . and intimate resemblance' he would say. In this period when portraiture becomes industrialized in conventional academicism Nadar eliminates conventional accessories and decor and refuses retouching in favor of 'true expression and that instant of understanding which puts you in contact with the model which helps you to summarize him guides you toward his ideas and his character'."" Claude Postel : connaissance des arts. The Nadar firm would execute later prints of this negative but this one is indeed a demonstration print not intended for commercial use. Like Baudelaire Vigny deplored the fashion for photography and particularly that of portraits but he paradoxically maintained his own collection of carte-de-visite photographs and at the end of his life he multiplied posing sessions first at Nadar's then at Le Gray's. Around 1855 he shows concern for his image the one he will leave to posterity and his photographic portraits must convey the character of the poet he wishes to leave behind. Thus we discover him in this portrait in a sphinx-like attitude seated rather rigidly in a velvet armchair his gaze directed toward the horizon arms crossed his right hand holding a mechanical pencil emblem of his vocation the rosette of the Legion of Honor adorning his collar.

187882671Paris: Nadar 1878. Fine. Nadar Paris 1878 6 x 10.50 cm une photographie Original albumen photograph representing Jules Verne carte-de-visite format mounted on heavy cardboard from the Nadar studio ""51 rue d'Anjou St Honoré"". Pen annotation on verso with advertising information for the Nadar studio. Gold medal. Universal Exhibition 1878. Blue stamp; Publisher J. Kuhn Paris. Jules Verne met Nadar in 1861 and the two men became friends the man left a deep impression on him and his adventures inspired him for Five Weeks in a Balloon Nadar would join with Jules Verne to create a Society for the encouragement of balloon transport From the Earth to the Moon and Around the Moon. The author describes him thus in From the Earth to the Moon: ""He is a man of 42 years tall but already a little stooped like those caryatids who carry balconies on their shoulders. His strong head a veritable lion's mane shook at moments a fiery hair which made him a true mane. A short face broad at the temples adorned with a bristling mustache like a cat's whiskers and small somewhat disheveled tufts a myopic gaze completed this eminently feline physiognomy."" Handsome portrait of the writer by Nadar where he appears particularly warm and benevolent. Nadar unknown

188892029Paul Nadar 1888. Fine. Paul Nadar s. d. 1888 - 1900 11 x 16.4 cm Autre Original anf fairly large cabinet card photograph. Maupassant was 38 years old when he sat before Nadar's lens in July 1888 though some sources give 1890 as the date. Two photographs are known from this sitting one showing his right profile and the other his left profile as with the present example. A photograph mounted on Nadar's studio card with his stamp below. The verso bears various advertisements relating to Nadar. Guy de Maupassant was always reluctant toward photography even hostile to the public dissemination of his image. Very few photographs of the writer exist as he rarely sat for photographs and generally only for private purposes but Félix Nadar was both an acquaintance and a friend within his circle. ""I made it an absolute rule not to let my image be published if I can help it"" Autograph manuscript note undated reproduced in the Pléiade album p.8. This portrait by Nadar has remained the writer's most celebrated photographic likeness. Photographs of the writer remain exceedingly rare on the market particularly in cabinet card format.

At this time aged 56 years old Proust's mother has been a widow for a year. The translation of his son's <i>The Bible of Amiens</i> was published that same year. She died of nephritis a year later on September 26 1905. Nadar did process her portrait and removed the shadows and various flaws on her face.</p><p>Michel Schneider notes that the narrator's mother in the <i>Search</i> is obviously inspired by the mother of the author himself. Jeanne Proust was born Jeanne Weil in 1849 from a Jewish family of the enlightened bourgeoisie. Much has been said about the intellectual complicity that united her with elder son. Marcel Proust who during his mother's lifetime wrote only <i>beautiful</i>things in the spirit of the time <i>Pleasures and Days</i> will not become the novelist of the <i>Search</i> until after the death his mother an event that has somehow freed his creation. In the novel the grief he felt at his death is shifted to that of the grandmother and that of Albertine. In the <i>Search</i> Mom doesn't die she is also mentioned more than 500 times.</p><p>Provenance:<br />-Proust Family<br />-Suzy Mante-Proust only daughter of Robert Proust by descent<br />-Patricia Mante-Proust granddaughter of Suzy Mante-Proust by descent</p><p><u>References:</u><br />Nadar repr. p. 32 in full. <br />Cattaui n° 59 repr. <br />Mauriac repr. p. 10.</p>

Only four photographic portraits of the writer are known:<br />-Two portraits by Étienne Carjat in Italian format taken during two different sessions<br />-A portrait in profile by Giacomo Borelli probably taken during the Universal Exhibition of 1867 which Flaubert attended<br />-A portrait by Felix Nadar of bust in three quarters the one presented here</p><p>Paul Nadar son of Félix Nadar 1820-1910 had begun to collaborate with his father in 1886.

He is an exception in a century where the face of the artist has multiplied through engraving and photography.
