Every month this year, we will make you discover a photographer a little forgotten from the agency Gamma-Rapho. This agency was born at the end of the sixties and symbolized with its two cousins born later, Sygma and Sipa, the apotheosis of phojournalism in France.
Today: René Maltête. He was a wonderful gentleman. A poet and a photographer full of kindness and nostalgia. All his pictures were idealized postcards of France. In short, a happy street photographer!
Jean-Jacques Naudet
René Maltête (1930 – 2000) Photographer for whom humor was the salt of life, René Maltête had the talent to trap with his objective unusual, funny and poetic situations of our daily life. His photographic archive is syndicated by Gamma-Rapho.
