Artist

Tountin

Tountin is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Tountin captured the late 1800s stage with crisp black-and-white photographs like *Guy Little Theatrical Photograph*. Their work belongs to the era when hand-colored lantern slides gave way to direct prints on paper. A single print from this batch shows an actor mid-gesture, light catching the collar of a velvet coat, the backdrop still the plain canvas used in many provincial theaters. Want to zoom in on how light and fabric met in those gaslit rooms? Tap *Guy Little Theatrical Photograph* to see every stitch.
