ABOUT THE GREAT NADAR

A dazzling, stylish biography of a fabled Parisian photographer, adventurer, and pioneer.

 

A recent French biography begins, Who doesnโ€™t know Nadar? In France, thatโ€™s a rhetorical question. Of all of the legendary figures who thrived in mid-19th-century Parisโ€”a cohort that includes Victor Hugo, Baudelaire, Gustave Courbet, and Alexandre Dumasโ€”Nadar was perhaps the most innovative, the most restless, the most modern.

 

The first great portrait photographer, a pioneering balloonist, the first person to take an aerial photograph, and the prime mover behind the first airmail service, Nadar was one of the original celebrity artist-entrepreneurs. A kind of 19th-century Andy Warhol, he knew everyone worth knowing and photographed them all, conferring on posterity psychologically compelling portraits of Manet, Sarah Bernhardt, Delacroix, Daumier and countless othersโ€”a priceless panorama of Parisian celebrity.

 

Born Gaspard-Fรฉlix Tournachon, he adopted the pseudonym Nadar as a young bohemian, when he was a budding writer and cartoonist.

The Jon Eric Hexum/Son of Bruce Lee Kill

 

Prop gun, two types of ammo. One type looks like a bullet, but has no powder. The other one has just a wee bit of powder, but no bullet.

Problem came when the one with a bullet but no powder had a wee bit of powder that pushed the bullet into the barrel. The type with powder but no bullet was then used in a "game" of russian roulette.

That's actually a fascinating theory, as the land would revert to the tribes, and the families, every 50 years. Was 1948 a Jubilee, I wonder. Unfortunately, they don't seem to have tracked it very well; answers are all over the place.
