Jeu de Paume

The first large-scale retrospective devoted to the artist in Paris, the exhibition Julia Margaret Cameron. Arresting beauty brings together some one hundred photographs, from her early experiments to her historical and literary compositions, as well as her figurative allegories and an impressive gallery of portraits of her contemporaries. Her approach, highly personal yet strongly criticized at the time, from her photographic technique to her out-of-focus images with various mistakes, emerged as the hallmark of a visionary style, incorporating imperfections and accidents in an innovative fashion. Her timeless and original body of work, created within just over a decade, between 1864 and 1875, represents one of the most beautiful illustrations of the epic energy that characterized the beginnings of photography.
