Biography:
Edouard-Denis Baldus began his artistic career as a painter but turned to photography in 1849. He was one of the forty original members of the Societe Heliographique, the world’s first photography group. Baldus often favored images of landscapes, architecture, and railways. In 1851, he was asked to document French architecture by the Historic Monuments Commission. Four years later he commissioned again to record the construction of the Musee du Louvre.
