DescriptionBlack and white photograph of a drawing and illustrated plates. The drawing is of an old-fashioned plate camera with a figure's legs coming out underneath the tarp. Surrounding the drawing are six plates. Each plate has a printed image on it, and each image is unique and slightly different, but concerning the same subject: two figures with a plate camera and the words "Chez le photographe".On View
