Martin Laroche
Martin Laroche is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
French printmaker in the 19th century, Martin Laroche carved sharp, detailed scenes that feel like crisply lit photographs before photography went mainstream. One of his prints in your bundle, “H Beard Print Collection,” shows a street corner in Paris with people, dogs, and shop fronts all lined up like a taxidermy tableau. If you’ve ever walked through a 1850s Parisian neighborhood, this print stops the moment in time so you can look closer at the hats and cobblestones. Tap “H Beard Print Collection” to step into Laroche’s Paris street.
