foto's van Brussel, Antwerpen, Namur, Leonard Misonne was een Belgisch picturalistisch fotograaf. Belgian pictorialist photographer. (1870-1943). Born in provincial southern Belgium into a prosperous family, Misonne studied mining engineering, but never practiced it, preferring to devote himself entirely to photography from 1896 onwards. A prominent presence in the first wave of pictorialism, Misonne travelled widely and learned the bromoil process from Emile Constant Puyo in Paris in 1910. As a figurehead of the pictorialist movement in Belgium, he acquired a lasting reputation for landscapes, bucolic and timeless, a genre he would exploit throughout his life. Misonne's work tended to express a conservative aesthetic, although the later townscapes outgrew the underlying anecdotal sentimentality present in some of his earlier views. The images are characterized by a masterly treatment of light and atmospheric conditions, as summed up in Misonne's credo 'Le sujet n'est rien, la lumiere est tout' ('The subject is nothing, light is everything'). While the subject matter remained more or less constant over half a century of activity, Misonne's chosen medium evolved towards more manipulated processes?from carbon printing, including the Fresson process, until 1910-15, by way of bromoil until 1930-5, up to a final phase using mediobrome.

Rozet A 557. First French edtion of a commercially big hit. Mattei distributed his medicines in the dispensories of many countries, to name but a few: Russia, Caucasus, Swiss, Italy, England, France, Germany, America, etc. "Electrohomoeopathy (or Mattei cancer cure) is a derivative of homeopathy invented in the 19th century by Count Cesare Mattei. The name is derived from a combination of electro (referring to an electric bio-energy content supposedly extracted from plants and of therapeutic value, rather than electricity in its conventional sense) and homeopathy (referring to an alternative medicinal philosophy developed by Samuel Hahnemann in the 18th century) ... Lucrative for its inventor and popular in the late nineteenth century, electrohomoeopathy has been described as "utter idiocy" ... it is regarded by the medical and scientific communities as pseudoscience and its practice as quackery" (Wikipedia).
