Mission 1893 / Photographs by Mieusement

 

A portfolio of 12 albumen paper positive photographs from gelatin silver glass negatives; the photographs show the Mieusement stamp in red ink and are captioned either on the photograph or in the margin. Some scattered foxing, in the original black shirt titled and dated in gold on the front cover, laces fasteners cut.  Dimensions 56 x 42 cm (portfolio) Box dimensions 54 x 40.5 cm  Dimensions of the photos 39 x 27 cm There are two Portfolios in the public collections One at La BNF with 18 photographs  One at the Institut de France composed of 30 photographs Our copy which contains 12 photographs is nevertheless very complete because the folder of the Portfolio cannot contain more photographs. Compared to the copy of the BNF only three photographs are identical, the nine others are absent from the BNF, the folder with flaps of the Portfolio is identical but that of the BNF is in very poor condition. Compared to the very complete copy of the Library of the Institut de France, of which we have not seen the folder, only one photo is identical, also present at the BNF, the 11 others are unpublished.
