- Abstract:
- Gathering all this news about Charles Monney (París 1830-Madrid 1875) and delving into the details of his professional life have made us consider his contribution to Spanish photography in its first decades. A photographer whose beginnings are linked to the legendary group of passer-by pioneers, somewhat later but who reminds us of photographers like Lorichon or the Count of Lipa, among others. Monney also surprises us for its associative strategy with photographers already settled in very different locations, providing a diverse offer that seems to adapt to each need, whether it be with “large and stereoscopic views”, “types”, enlargements, mosaics, or selling plates to his colleagues. In short, a “modus operandi” that has not facilitated the discovery of his work, which fortunately was registered in the Bilbao albums, testimony to his professional mastery.
- Notes:
- Charles Monney Millet (París 1830-Madrid 1875), es muy conocido por su amplio reportaje sobre el Sitio de Bilbao en 1874, su huella ha sido identificada por numerosos fotohistoriadores en Murcia, Málaga, Córdoba, Granada, Sevilla, Madrid o Bilbao. Reunir sus registros y aportar nuevos datos sobre su versatilidad fotográfica y su faceta estereoscópica es nuestro objetivo.
