L’Épreuve Photographique: The Photographic Print - 1904-1905
Appropriately, and in keeping with the tradition set forth in the first and last plates included with L’Épreuve Photographique for 1904, a nighttime study of the city of Paris, known as The City of Light, concludes this 1905 portfolio.
In 1905, Petitot is listed as an active member of the Société D’Excursions des Amateurs de Photographie in Paris (founded 1887) who was later named this society’s Assistant Secretary in 1907. 1.
