Christophe Goeury and the Million Auction house are pleased to announce their upcoming prestige photography auction of exemplary 19th and 20th century photography, that will be held in Paris in Salle VV near Hôtel Drouot on November 9th.




The first collection is a set of more than 250 prints including 100 prints on salted paper (80 lots) from the Studio’s fonds of the painter photographer Jean-Baptiste FRENET (1814-1889).
Painter, politician and scientist with a rebellious and passionate character, Jean-Baptiste Frénet reveals himself through the presentation of his studio’s collection as a pioneering photographer in the art of portraiture, contemporary of Nadar. His work is closely linked to the history of photography in the 19th century. He proposed an innovative approach to photographic portraiture by exploiting intimacy and the instantaneous in human subjects. This collection offers a significant range of Jean-Baptiste Frénet photographic work.




The second collection belonging to Mr D. presents for the first time 15 originals photographs by Jacques-Henri LARTIGUE (1894-1986). These images were acquired directly by our collector from Florette, Jacques-Henri Lartigue's last wife.

The last collection reveals 10 photographs by Helmut NEWTON (1920-2004), including 4 large formats:
"Sie kommen (Walking women) 1981", print A.P 1/1, 135 x 115 cm
"Untitled II, Hollywood, 1989", print A.P 1/1, 120 x 130 cm
"Woman on cross, Orange County Californie, 1983", print A.P 1/1, 120 x 160 cm
"Betty Prado, 1986, Fashion America 1986", print A.P 1/1, 110 x 160 cm
