CERCLE DU COMTE OLYMPE AGUADO 1827-1894 ou P.PERRIN (act. 1860-1870) Aristocrats on the porch of Villa Stéphanie, Baden, ca.1862. De la Rochefoucault, Lord Granville, Count and Countess de Zeppelin, Princess Menchikoff, Baron and Baroness de Talleyrand, Monsieur and Madame Ford, Maître Cavendish, Messieurs Juison, Serisen, Baronne Maijthénij, R. de Tolstoÿ, Baron de Jenecmeinst, Vicomte Paul de Coulombiers. Photograph. Albumen print mounted under passe-partout, attached label captioned in ink beneath the image. Minor restoration. 18.7 x 24.7 cm The composition of this photograph is very similar to those usually chosen by Count Olympe Aguado. He and his brother frequented the Court of Baden, which became, according to Marie Colombier's memoirs, "a suburb of Paris". In her article in the 1984 exhibition catalog "Degas: le modelé et l'espace", Eugenia Parry Janis proposed the attribution of a certain P.Perrin to a photograph close to the one shown. The latter was in Baden at the time, as were Aguado and Pierre Petit.
