notes:
Auguste Vacquerie (1819-1895), poet, playwright and photographer, was admitted to Victor Hugo's intimate circle as a very young man. After Hugo’s exile from France in 1852, both he and Vacquerie settled on the Isle of Jersey in September of 1853. To pass the time, they began to photograph family members and their surroundings, making over a hundred now-famous images between 1853 and 1854.
