Carjat's multifaceted talents made him a significant figure in the literary and artistic world of his time. Carjat is depicted in this image, seated at a table adorned with various objects that reflect his diverse interests. In his left hand, he holds a lyre, a symbol of his poetic abilities. A newspaper and quill pen are nearby, reminding us of his journalistic pursuits. The most striking element of the photograph, however, is the camera resting on the table before him.
