[Nadar] Gaspard-Félix Tournachon, "Nadar". (1820-1910). Quand J’Etais Photographe - INSCRIBED. Paris: Flammarion. [ca. 1900]. First edition. 8vo (5 x 7.5 inches), 312 pages. Green period marble boards, demi-percaline corners with gilt details and title to spine. Signed and inscribed on the half-title page, in French to one William Lacroix, an as yet unidentified "old collaborator": "Le meilleur souvenir à mon ancien collaborateur William Lacroix, très cordialement, Nadar. Cannes, fev. 1904.” Light uniform toning throughout, scattered light wear and rubbing to boards, otherwise fine.
A rare signed copy of the autobiography of the influential French photographer, caricaturist, journalist, novelist, and balloonist. Nadar remains a crucial figure in the history of photography for having created a type of modern portrait based on the direct psychological approach to his subject and for his pioneering technical feats and championing of the medium.
