достойная родственница ньепса

Janine Niepce (1921-2007). Descended from the inventor of photography, Nicephore Niepce, Janine grew up in Burgundian wine country. History caught up with her at the Sorbonne, in 1944, where she was studying art and archaeology. It was wartime and Janine Niepce made films for the French Resistance movement to publicize the plight of occupied Paris to the outside world. After war's end, Niepce became one of the outstanding international photo-journalists. She coevred the revoltuionary events of May 1968 dsiguised a a tourist and fought for women's rights beginning in the 1970s. Her son was killed in a mountain-climbing accident in 1980. Niepce became a Knight of the Legion d'Honneurin 1985. From what perch did Niepce capture The Little Skater in 1954? There are no shadows in the picture to give us a clue and the skaters seem unaware of the camera's presence. A resourceful artist has her secrets.
