Biography

1873-1948, FranceFrom City Hall to the Musée d’Orsay, he is without contest the photographer of the opening of this year. Because his autochromes constitute one of revelations of the exposition Paris en couleurs, here is the guest of honor of the photographic gallery of the Musée d’Orsay that consecrates to this grand experimenter his first retrospective.Collaborator for the journal  l’Illustration, La Vie au grand air and La Vie illustrée Léon Gimpel realized numerous photo reports for the press. Follower of the autochrome and initiator of the movement to bring science to the general public he realized between 1897 and 1932 thousands of photographs. The recourse to light-sensitive plates only availed him to slip into oblivion.
