"Charles Marville 1813-1879 is widely acknowledged as one of the most talented photographers of the nineteenth century. Accompanying a major retrospective exhibition at the National Gallery of Art in honor of Marville's bicentennial Charles Marville: Photographer of Paris surveys the artist's entire career. This beautiful book which begins with the city scenes and architectural views Marville made throughout France and Germany in the 1850s also explores his portraits and landscapes s before turning to his photographs of Paris made both before and after the city's dramatic modernization in the 1850s and 1860s. Commissioned to record the city in transition Marville created one of the earliest and most powerful photographic series documenting urban transformation on a grand scale. Despite the importance of his work Marville has long been an enigma in the history of photography in part because many of the documents about his life were thought to have been lost in a fire that destroyed Paris's city hall in 1871. Based on meticulous research this volume reveals many new insights into Marville's personal and professional biography including the central fact that he was born Charles-François Bossu. He shed this name which means hunchback and adopted the pseudonym Marville when he began his career as an illustrator in the 1830s. With five essays by respected scholars this book offers the first comprehensive examination of Marville's life and career and delivers the much-awaited public recognition his photographs so richly deserve"--Provided by publisher.
