Henry Murger described within his novel La Bohème for the first time in history the life and struggle of poor artists within bourgeois society. This was the beginning of the romantic myth of the independent, anarchistic spirit of creative artists. In that context photography played an important role, used by the artists for self-exposure and to document their working conditions and leisure. The bohemian legend persists in literature, on stage and film, as well as in the attitudes of numerous artists of our own time. This book assembles daguerreotypes and photographs of painters, sculptures, writers and actors, portraits and group pictures, pictures of studio interiors and parties from the late Biedermeier over the Belle Epoche up to the 1920th.
Besides the pictures from famous photographers as Nadar, Alois Löcherer, Wilkie Wynfield, J.M. Cameron, August Sander and Lux Feininger, the book contains numerous unusual pictures of unknown "masters".

Nel suo romanzo del 1851 Scenes de la Vie de Boheme, l'autore francese Henri Murger creò l'immagine dell'artista come un outsider che, in piena epoca borghese, viveva nella povertà romantica. Proprio nel mezzo del periodo in cui la leggenda della Boheme crebbe, arrivò l'invenzione della fotografia. Quanto fosse forte questo approccio colorato alla vita tra gli autori, i pittori e perfino i fotografi stessi è riflesso dalle mises en scene fotografiche, presentati nella mostra al Museum Ludwig e nel relativo catalogo.

Gewebe. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Aufl. 397 S. : zahlr. Ill. ; 29 cm Zustand: Leineneinband, unauffällige Macke im Gewebe auf der Vorderseite. Montiertes Bild auf dem Vorderdeckel, insgesamt sehr gut --- Inhalt: Wer in diesem oppulenten Bildband blättert, kann leicht das Gefühl bekommen, die Fotografie sei im 19. Jahrhundert eigens entwickelt worden, um die Freuden und Feste, die Orgien und Exzesse jenes Milieus für alle Zeiten festzuhalten, das wir seit Henri de Murgers berühmtem Roman "Boheme" zu nennen pflegen. Denn schier unerschöpflich sind offenbar die Archive, was die Umtriebe jenes Künstlervölkchens angeht, das sich vor allem in Paris, der Hauptstadt des 19. Jahrhunderts, mit all ihren Theatern und Vaudevilles, ihren Malern, Musikern, Modellne herausgebildet hat. Dass dabei auch oft handfester Sex im Spiel war, erfährt freilich nur der, der etwas tiefer in die Materie eindringt, als immer nur Puccinis gleichnamige Oper zu hören, die Murgers Vorlage bis zu uns Heutigen hinübergetragen hat - allerdings eher als rührselige Kitschpostkarte. Man wusste ja, dass die Menschen auch im sogenannten viktorischen Zeitaltern keine Kinder von Traurigkeit waren, aber wer sich hier umschaut, kann nur sage: Der Berliner Kit-Kat-Club ist auch nur Epigone.TK ROS5-8 ISBN: 9783869301396 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 2000.
