Schemboche
Schemboche is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
French photographer Schemboche focused on the stage in the 1800s, turning gaslit actors mid-performance into crisp portraits. One example is the Guy Little Theatrical Photograph from that century, showing an actor caught between costume and character. Look closer and you can almost feel the heat of the footlights. See how the glare on the brass rail mirrors the star’s anxious eyes. Move next to the Guy Little photograph to step inside a velvet-draped playhouse without leaving your screen.
