Abstract
The author opens her article as follows: ""If Ferdinand Reyher
had completed his monograph on Eugène Atget and if the
manuscript of his novel about an individualistic 19th century
photographer had not been lost, Reyher might today be recognized
as a pioneer in photographic history.'' A superbly researched
article on this peripheral but quite influential figure in the
field of photographic history (he co-edited Newhall's ""History
of Photography'', for example) and criticism. Not only was
Reyher an expert on Atget, but he also catalogued Le Secq,
Charles Marville and Lewis Hine.
