Nadar
Nadar (1820-1910), whose real name was Felix Tournachon, was a conspicuous, even astonishing presence in 19th-century France. Engaging and quick-witted, he invented himself over and over--as a bohemian writer, journalist, romantic utopian, caricaturist, photographer, and scientific innovator. This book catalogues nearly 200 of his finest works, 98 of them in color.

Haunting black and whites. Nadar somehow makes you think of death and inspiration all at once. Seeing these images is like poring over a collection of stills from hauntingly beautiful dreams you forgot you forgot.
