Roses trémières
"Roses trémières" is an albumen print by French photographer Eugène Atget documenting a cluster of hollyhock flowers in their natural setting. Numbered 846 and titled in pencil on the verso, this work exemplifies Atget's systematic cataloguing approach to botanical and architectural subjects in early 20th century Paris. The photograph demonstrates the photographer's characteristic attention to descriptive detail and his commitment to preserving disappearing aspects of urban and natural life through the albumen process.
