LEONARD MISONNE

Misonne, born in Gilly Belgium on juli 1, 1870 was a master pictorialist photographer. His atmospheric landscapes and street scenes are among the finest pictorial depictions of such subject matter. He employed many process and techniques throughout his career and championed a highly diffused printing system and light quality. His photographs are among many important collections and anthologies on the history of pictorialist photography.

Misonne's pictures makes me realize how beautifull Belgium can be. How mysterious something very normal can be. His work is absolutly stunning and makes me want to go out in the Belgian fields myself.
