Emile Zola, the wonderful writer, became an avid photographer in his 40s, mostly photographing his family's daily life. It's interesting to get a glimpse of who he was and his life. His sense of humor and love for his children (and wives, so many portraits!) comes through really well. I particularly liked the pictures of his children and pets.
If you come to Paris before April 20th, you can see the exhibition "Zola photographe" in Versailles. If not, you can see the over 2000 negatives he left here!
