Le Mont Blanc et Chamonix. (Savoie.) La Suisse et la Savoie. 17.
Photographié par Martens. Lithographié par Eug. Cicéri. Imp. Lemercier, Paris.
Publié par Goupil et C.e le 1.r Avril 1860. Paris, London. Berlin. Verlag von Goupil & C.e. New York. Published by M. Knoedler.
Tinted lithograph. Sheet 400 x 570mm (15¾ x 22½"), with Goupil's blind stamp, very large margins.
A view of Chamonix with Mont Blanc in the background. Plate 17 of 'La Suisse et la Savoie par Eugène Ciceri d'après les vues photographiées par Martens, photographe de S.M. l'Empereur' (1859-65), which recorded 'numerous locations still unknown or little known in topographical illustration' (Gattlen). In 1844 Frédéric Martens (1809-75) had been sent to Chamonix by the French government to experiment with photography in extreme conditions, producing some of the first photographs of the high alps. In the early 1850s he exhibited panoramic views in London and Paris, fuelling interest in the scenery of the region, so returned for this series. As his medium, daguerreotype, prevented easy reproduction, his images had to be lithographed (by Étienne Eugène Cicéri) for publication.
Anton Gattlen, 'L'Estampe topographique ou valais 1850-1899 et supplement 1600-1849', p.86.
