An ode to holiday pleasures

Detail is from Jacques-Henri Lartigue: The Proof of Color. A lovely hardcover with tipped-on cover image, this new release from Atelier EXB collects previously unpublished double-view autochromes by the early-twentieth-century French photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue—beloved for his sporty portraits of friends and family enjoying moments of leisure at the beach, in the country and on the slopes of the French Alps. Much as we hate to imagine wearing them ourselves, how we love to see women skiing in long skirts! This particular photograph includes Lartigue himself, second from right in his iconic “tango” orange sweater, photographed with his own camera by Victor Folletête in Chamonix, January 21, 1914.
