FALLOT (Henri) - Lot 81
FALLOT (Henri) French public figure / magistrate or administrative personality, active in the first half of the 20th century. Original signed photograph. Bust-length portrait at his desk, in front of a working bookcase. Vintage silver print, mounted on strong card. Signed in ink lower left: "Henri Fallot". Circa 1920-1930. A fine official portrait of a man at work, probably in an institutional setting (cabinet or administrative library). The elegant setting - desk full of files, period telephone, shelving - gives the image a documentary character, representative of the administrative elites of the interwar period. The autograph signature, clearly visible at the bottom of the montage, reinforces the interest of this photograph, which is part of the tradition of official portraits offered or circulated in professional circles. Good overall condition, despite slight wear to the mounting board.
