Fotografia antigua Lampue .Arquitecto Sauvestre. Fotografía antigua Paris
En esta fotografía vemos un estrecho y típico edificio de París realizado por el famoso arquitecto de la torre Eiffel Stephan Sauvestre.
Esta foto que pertenece a un álbum formado por 40 albúminas sobre cartulina titulado "FAÇADES DE MAISONS, VILLAS ET HÔTELS À PARIS".
Está realizada por Pierre Lampué uno de los grandes retratistas de París que tambien ocupó el cargo de fotógrafo de la Escuela de Bellas Artes de Paris.
No deja de llamar la atención que se selecciona , para tan importante arquitecto como es Sauvestre, una obra en cierto modo menor lo que nos indica, aun así, su importancia pues la selección de obras de este álbum la realizaron arquitectos de la mencionada escuela.
Estos Álbumes eran considerados piezas de lujo encontrandose pocos de ellos en el mercado pues su tirada fue escasa y los ejemplares que quedan estan en las bibliotecas de arquitectura.
Fotografías de Lampue se pueden ver en la web Europeana

Lampúe se hizo famoso por una fuerte controversia que mantuvo a través de la prensa con los pintores cubistas.
.. The subject of an interpellation in the Chambre
des Députés. Following the lead of a municipal councillor and amateur
photographer named Lampué, who had written an open letter to Monsieur
Bérard, Under-Secretary in the Ministry of Fine Arts, in the Mercure de
France:
....That access to all public building should be denied " to a gang of
criminals who behave in the art world like yobs and delinquents.
a Socialist deputy, Monsieur Jean Louis Breton, demanded that measures be taken to prevent the Cubists from exhibiting at the Salon d'Automne:
....'Il
est absolument inadmissible que nos palais nationaux puissent servir à
des manifestations d'un caractère aussi nettement antiartistique et
antinational.' .
The attack was answered by Marcel Sembat
'Quand un tableau vous semble mauvais,' he declared, 'Vous
avez un incontestable droit: celui de ne pas le regarder et d'aller en
voir d'autres. Mais on n'appelle pas les gendarmes.'
Excelente contestación.
