The pagoda, Phnom Chisor, Cambodia, 1933
The Phnom Chisor temple is a temple located 42 km south of Phnom Penh at the top of the hill of the same name in the province of Takeo.
Two Buddhist monks in orange robes pose in front of the temple.
Autochromes from Indochina are rare. This type of autochrome can be found in the collections of "Archives of the Planet, a photographic inventory of the surface of the globe, occupied and developed by man, as it appeared at the beginning of the 20th century," which today form the basis of the collections of the Albert-Kahn departmental museum.
"This is not a snapshot, but the reproduction of a frozen and composed moment, illuminated by an impression, a sensation of color generated by multiple touches of pigments shaped by the brush of light" Institut Lumière.
