Photography

Invented by Joseph Niépce in 1826, photography is based on two types of knowledge: optics, allowing an image to be captured and delivered, and chemistry used to fix it on a surface. Its inventor died in 1833, but Louis Daguerre continued his research to discover the development of the latent image reducing exposure time. At the end of the 19th century, Eastman Kodak democratized film photography by making it possible to take many photos in less time. Photography continues to evolve with the inventions of color, film, relief photos, and digital photos, or even synthesis, etc.

Digital Photography

When we think of photography, we directly imagine a work of digital photography. However, while digital photography is the de facto standard in photography today, it was not always this way.

The history of photography in a few words

An Iraqi scientist created the first camera in history, the camera obscura, in the early 11th century. The first surviving photograph was taken in 1826 by a French photographer, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce, who used a portable camera obscura to capture the iconic image known as the "Point de vue du Gras."

Description
The Great Pyramid of La Grande Motte is the emblematic building of the city and also the largest pyramid in the city. It marks an important transition between the Pyramides du Levant district, the city center, and the “conches of Venus” or “bishop’s bonnets” residences in the Couchant district. The moldings of the Great Pyramid, these concrete shapes plastered on its facade, evoke images of swimsuits. Every detail of this pyramid tells a story and encourages reflection on architectural creativity. The proposed work is an art print on Fine Art baryta 315g paper (allow for a lead time). For other printing media, other formats, a personalized quote will be sent.
