Roadside Scene (Verso)

Jean-Gabriel Eynard

The J. Paul Getty Museum

The J. Paul Getty Museum
Los Angeles, United States

No other Jean-Gabriel Eynard image is quite so filled with activity and objects as this one. Oxen pull a cart, men gather for a conversation, and a carriage pulled by two handsome horses pauses on its journey. The cropped lawn and smoothly groomed road suggest that Eynard staged this scene on his own estate rather than on a public highway. The photographer himself peers out of the carriage next to Henri Dunant, the standing man in a dark topcoat, who later founded the Red Cross.
