Peut-on la contempler ?
Amsterdam, Pays-Bas
Le propriétaire est connu. Si elle est exposée aujourd’hui, le musée ne le dit pas, et l’on ne nous a pas appris à deviner.
At the end of the 19th century photography came to be used increasingly at crime scenes. It provided evidence in court and documentation in police files. A French police photographer was probably at work here. Arthur Leroy, a 53-year-old gardener from Raincy (just outside of Paris), was murdered by his former neighbour and the latter’s girlfriend. The loot amounted to 200 French francs.
