Adolphe de Meyer — lecture at Huis Marseille
Lecture in English exploring Adolphe and Olga de Meyer’s life and photographs from the Huis Marseille exhibition.
Discover the fascinating life and photographic work of Adolphe de Meyer (1868–1946) on 19 November.
The exhibition at Huis Marseille is based on an exceptional collection of 75 photographs discovered in 2019 at the Bibliothèque municipale de Tours. The images document the life and work of Adolphe de Meyer in Venice, where this multifaceted photographer spent some of his most productive and inspiring years alongside his wife and creative partner, Olga. In addition to photography, De Meyer was also active as an interior designer, art collector, journalist and writer.
During the lecture on 19 November, Camille Mona Paysant will take the audience on a journey into the world of Adolphe and Olga de Meyer, using images from the exhibition. She will explore their flamboyant lifestyle, their artistic network and the particular significance of their years in Venice.
