Gallery Lumière des Roses explores the vast and fertile field of the anonymous photography to extract images that the eye, indifferent to the name of the artist, recognizes for its intrinsic value, its freedom, its evocative power or any other reason that may remain unnamed.
The Gallery presents an exceptional series of self-portraits made by an amateur between 1940 and 1970. This set which tells the story of an raw obsession, subject of a book published by the gallery, Zorro ou le portrait d’un autre (Zorro or Likeness of Another) accompanied by a text by François Cheval, Curator of the Museum Nicephore Niepce.
