Tourtain
Tourtain is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Tourtain made early photographs of stage performers in the 19th century. Their only known surviving work here is *Guy Little Theatrical Photograph*, a studio portrait of actors caught mid-character. These photos freeze costume and pose the way painted portraits once did. See how the lighting lifts the actor’s face right off the card—then tap the border to zoom into the lace and paint on the costume.
