description: A new version of the representation of the artist’s studio arose during the Romantic period. Painters, sculptors and architects enjoyed being photographed in their studio, a setting for their talent. Among others we can see the studios of Camille Corot, Pierre Prins, Degas, Bartholomé, Mucha, Forain, Delaherche, Gérôme, Carabin, Bugatti, Bonnard, and Rodin. The photographic collection of the Musée d’Orsay was put together in the late 1970s when the museum was created. It now contains over 55,000 prints and negatives ranging from the early days of photography to 1914. A permanent gallery was opened in Autumn 2002 to display this outstanding set of works. The Photography at Orsay series, co-published by 5 Continents Editions and the Musée d’Orsay, accompanies thematic exhibitions held at the gallery. It offers an affordable set of reference works on photography written by the museum’s specialists and illustrated with works displayed in the exhibitions, which in many cases have been reproduced for the first time.
