Jean-Eugène-Auguste Atget

Jean-Eugène-Auguste Atget (French, 1857–1927) has 75 public-domain artworks in the Archive Lane archive, each available as a digital download or a made-to-order print.

Eugène Atget was a French flâneur and a pioneer of documentary photography, determined to document all of the architecture and street scenes of Paris before their disappearance to modernization. Most of his photographs were first published by Berenice Abbott after his death. Though he sold his work to artists and craftspeople, and became an inspiration for the surrealists, he did not live to see the wide acclaim his work would eventually receive.
