Over the years I've published dozens of photos attributed to Louis Igout, an 1880s photographer who made nude photos for artists too poor to hire paid models. In a further effort to keep costs down, it seems that most of these were published as panels of multiple photos per page. When trolling for them on the internet, I have to do repeated searches to find scans of sufficient resolution to crop out individual shots. The above is toward the better end of the continuum, but I have resorted to lower quality scans when I found a low resolution picture I just had to have.
Really love and appreciate these classic photos.
