Between 1912 and 1930, anyone could have their portrait taken at the many so-called rapid photography studios in the shopping streets of mainly (medium) large-size European cities. As if on an assembly line, the youngest clerk shot the photographs with a special camera and in artificial light and developed them. Later in the day, the customer collected a sheet with 12 portrait photos for 25 cents. This form of photographic mass production gave rise to a fascinating tableau of boys, girls, men and women not previously seen in photographs; candid and informal. There were at least 150 quick-photo studios, from Alkmaar to Zutphen. Many called themselves ‘American,’ mistakenly as it turns out because hardly any examples from that country have been found.

These two jars, which were probably used to store water, are decorated with lively scenes centered on the public fountains that provided water for daily use. Subjects include popular types like the water carrier, burdened by his characteristic chochocol, a large earthenware jar used to deliver water. In another scene, a bloody brawl between two water carriers has broken out. The treatment of these subjects belongs to the literary and pictorial tradition of "costumbrismo," which highlights the customs, occupations, and dress of a particular place.

He wears a scarlet, European-style military uniform with pearl epaulettes and bejeweled armbands (bazubands) and a Qajar astrakhan hat with a plumed aigrette.

Two Views of the Head (plate 4), in Myologie Complette en Couleur et Grandeur Naturelle

Artist: joseph guichard duverney
Artist role: author
Artist nationality: french
Artist dates: 1648 – 1730
Subjects: human anatomy,heads

Jacques-Fabien Gautier-Dagoty received a royal license for his technique of four-plate color printing in mezzotint, a process closely derived from the three-plate method of his teacher, Jacob Christoph Le Blon (to which Gautier-Dagoty added a plate printed in black or brown). Although he also made prints that reproduced paintings or depicted notable figures, Gautier-Dagoty's special interests lay in anatomy, botany, and zoology—fields that would be revolutionized by the publication of accurate color illustrations. He founded the first French illustrated scientific journal, and prepared large-scale publications such as Myologie complète en couleur et grandeur naturelle a treatise on the anatomy of muscles from which these views of the human head are taken.
