Hindman : Sale of Eugene Atget Photographs

Preview

Eugène Atget photographs sold by The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston are presented at the auction house Hindman in Chicago on December 6, 2022.

Hindman presents a rare collection of photographs by Eugène Atget, a pioneer of photography, whose documentary vision of Paris was highly influential to artists across the globe, inspiring everyone from Man Ray to Ansel Adams. Originally owned by American photographer Berenice Abbott, an early champion of Atget, these photographs were then in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York before finding their way to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. This 42-lot auction on December 6 is a stunning display of Atget’s ability to capture Paris’s rapidly changing architecture and culture in the early 20th century.
