EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Camille Flammarion, a renowned French astronomer who lived from 1842 to 1925. Captured by Eugene Pirou, an accomplished photographer of his time, this portrait emanates a sense of formality and severity that befits Flammarion's intellectual prowess. Flammarion's thick beard adds an air of wisdom and authority to his countenance, while his piercing gaze hints at the depth of knowledge he possessed in the field of astronomy. As one of the founding members of the French Astronomical Society in 1887, Flammarion made significant contributions to advancing our understanding of celestial bodies. Displayed within Musee de la Ville de Paris' Musee Carnavalet collection, this photograph offers a glimpse into the life and legacy of this remarkable individual.
