Philibert Perraud (1815-1863)
Quarter-plate daguerreotype, signed in point on the plate, lower left angle, caption and date on paper
label, verso.
In the famous Summer days of 1839 when the proclamation of the invention of daguerreotype or he-
liography* was made by Arago and the first photographic workshop ever took place in Paris, among
the public was Philibert Perraud who became an enthusiastic disciple and soon a missionary in Italy.
In Rome, Perraud photographed French, Scandinavian and German artists, in Northern Italy, he pho-
tographed prominent characters such as Angelo. (Gabriella Bologna and Ken Jacobson, The Itinerant
Daguerreotypist, A Case Study in Pre-Unified Northern Italy, 2012). Provenance : the Family of the
sitter.
800/1000 euros
*Since 1839 - 180 years from now - supporters of Daguerre and supporters of Niepce argue on every
single step of the invention. In the first ten or twelve years, supporters of Niepce refused to spell the
odious name of Daguerre and favorished héliographie, traced with the sun, Société Héliographique,
Mission Héliographique, etc... until in 1852, everybody adopted the word photography.

Cavalli, of Apulian origin and of lawyer training —
endowed with his own strong artistic awareness and
engaged in an intense theoretical and popular acti-
vity — and subsequently close to Paolo Monti,
inspirer in particular of his material period and of ele-
gant experimentations.
After two years of war, the dramatic imprisonment in
Germany — for refusing to join the Republic of Salò
— and the hospitalization at the sanatorium of Forlì,
in 1953 he graduated in law and worked as a lawyer
until 1992.
In parallel with his legal activity, he produced a vast
photographic production which, although born in the
amateur field at the end of the 1940s, was always
distinguished by the rigour and balance of his profes-
sionalism. These will be accompanied, as a legacy of
the Horse way, a meticulous organization of its
archive of images, structured according to catalo-
guing criteria still current and usable.
Thanks to Giuseppe Cavalli, in the forties and fifties
Senigallia experienced a period of great intellectual
ferment for various initiatives, not only in the field of
photography, a case history rare in the cultural land-
scape of the time. The friendship between Ferroni
and Cavalli will be nourished by precious external
contributions, one of which will be Mario Giacomelli;
the three of them will attend assiduously and very
often Casa Ferroni will be the place for discussion

At the time of the partition of India in 1947, the Dogra ruler Maharaja Hari Singh signed the Instrument
of Accession of Ladakh to India. In 1949, China closed the border between Nubra and Xinjiang,
blocking old trade routes. Since 1974, the Government of India successfully encouraged tourism.
Mario Giacomelli prepared and taught young Enea Discepoli with a Mamya Press 6/9 camera, before
his trip to Ladakh in 1976. The negatives were then edited and printed in Senigallia by MG before being
exhibited once in the USA (1980) and in Senigallia (2011). “Da queste foto emerge la sorprendente

anche violando quello che era il mio spirito di avventuriero, che deve viverlo il momento e non guardarlo
da dietro una macchina fotografica… Ma lui mi faceva notare che l’avventura (il mio specifico) poteva
essere accompagnata dalla fotografia per animare l’avventura stessa.” (Enea Discepoli).
