42 Individually Mounted Miniature Male Nude Albumens by Louis Jean Baptiste Igout (a.k.a. Calavas)

Forty-two miniature male nude albumen prints, individually mounted (with great precision) on a cabinet card. Ca. 1870.

The card measures approximately 4-1/4 x 6-1/2 inches. Each of the forty-two individual prints measures approximately 1/2 x 3/4 inches. Condition is very-good to excellent: Back of mount has some glue residue.

The photographer, Louis Jean Baptiste Igout, also know as Calavas, was a French photographer who lived from 1837 to approximately 1881. While catalogues, montages and individual prints become available occasionally, this work is unique and hand-made.

The item's importance to the history of male physique photography cannot be overestimated.
