25x18 cm. Signed by Paul Nadar on the support. Albumen print of the iconic daguerrotype of Balzac by Louis-Auguste Bisson, retouched and reproduced by Paul Nadar who inherited it from his father Felix Nadar. Very rare. According to Nicolas Derville, "les supports photographiques qui ont assur� sa diffusion sont aujourd'hui, et �taient d�j� au XIXe si�cle extr�mement rares; la plupart ont disparu, et les copies daguerriennes, n�gatifs, �preuves positives d'�poque, ou m�me des contretypes plus tardifs, ne subsistent de nos jours qu'en tr�s petit nombre.".
