Caboche & Cie sound like the kind of studio where the coffee never stops and proofs pile up to the ceiling. They turned singer Gilbert Duprez into a ghostly silhouette in 1840, all sharp lines and smudged edges that make you feel the gaslight flicker. Hunt down that print in the corner of the room and you’ll spot the trick: the white space breathes more than the ink.
