Selected Images of Roseraie de L'Haÿ (3 Photographs)
1922
Eugène Atget's three photographs document the Roseraie de L'Haÿ, capturing distinct views of the historic rose garden through different photographic processes. The series comprises two albumen prints and one printing out paper print, each bearing the photographer's identifying marks including pencil notations, his studio stamp from Rue Campagne Première, and sequential numbering (1189, 1190, and 1192). These works exemplify Atget's documentary approach to French landscapes and gardens, employing the printing techniques characteristic of early twentieth century photography.
