Gustave
Le Gray (
1820 -1884 ):
He was a french painter who became photographer. He began as a portraitist but due to the success of Disderi and the limitations of the daguerreotype he had to switch to landscapes and travel photography.
He saw the photography as art.
His photos of seascape had great sucess, he used a combination of 2 negatives, he impressed the sky and the waves separately and then he blended both with great harmony.
He is considered a pioneer of instant photography. His excellent and refined technique allowed him to capture in one shot with great precision the sky and the sea.
