| Keywords: Eugène Atget, Corner of the rue de Seine and the rue de l'Echaudé - Getty Museum.jpg Artwork en Eugène Atget made a number of prints from the negative of this spiky angular building; this example was exposed for longer than the others during the printing process yielding a darker composition As a result the picture gives the dramatic impression that it was made during that indistinct period of early morning when the sun is rising and night is fading away Other prints of this image are lighter and consequently less striking To accommodate the tall structure within the parameters of his lens Atget was forced to position his camera at a considerable distance from the building filling the foreground with an expansive fork in the road Gelatin silver printing-out paper print Image 22 7 x 17 9 cm 8 15/16 x 7 1/16 in Institution Getty Museum object history exhibition history other versions 69968 Markings Atget wet stamp verso print Inscription Title and negative number inscribed verso print Secondary Inscription Inscribed verso print in unknown later hand 560 credit line accession number 90 XM 64 7 PD-old-auto 1927 1924 in Paris 1924 photographs Photographs of Paris by Eugène Atget Photographs in the Getty Museum Rue de Seine Paris Rue de l'Échaudé Paris | ||||
