EPOUVANTE - NUDE, crime or nightmare, 1950s - Lot 52
EPOUVANTE - NUDE, crime or nightmare, 1950s Photo (photomontage), silver print on vintage cartoline paper, annotated on the back (mention of the magazine "Enquêtes" without further references) Dimensions: 18.2 x 24 cm Note : Press photomontage produced in the 1950s, illustrating a horror scene combining nudity and a criminal or dreamlike atmosphere. This type of image was frequently used by the popular illustrated press in the post-war period to accompany news stories, police investigations or sensational stories. The handwritten reference to the magazine "Enquêtes" on the reverse suggests editorial use in this French periodical devoted to criminal cases and investigative stories, whose iconography was often based on photographic stagings or photomontages designed to dramatize the subjects covered. This document bears witness to the visual practices of the illustrated press in the 1950s, where photography and montage were used to reinforce the narrative and emotional impact of articles. Some foxing on one edge.
