"Bayard, Devant sa Maison" is a poignant self-portrait by Hippolyte Bayard, a French pioneer of photography. The image, dating from possibly 1842-1965, depicts Bayard seated outside his home, presenting a melancholic figure against a backdrop of a simple white house. This early calotype exemplifies the evolving art of photography and serves as a testament to Bayard's technical prowess and artistic vision. This work is currently on display at The Art Institute of Chicago.
