About this photograph :
Grand Prix de Pau, 1949, Fangio Maserati
The few shots that Dieuzaide realized during the epoch in which he was working for the weekly But et Club, from 1946 to 1953, are precious. His coverage of the Grands Prix of Albi, of Pau and of Cadours constitute a unique testimony which lingered at the sidelines of the competition, capturing live the most famous actors of this epoch. The stars that were the Fangio, Villoresi, Louis Rosier... are surprised in postures and in situations that offer a new fashion to photograph in sports press.
About the artist :
Jean
Dieuzaide
Born in 1921, Jean Dieuzaide very quickly showed a passion for photography. He proved it ardently, everywhere, from Paris to Toulouse, passing through Arles.Launched by a photograph of General de Gaulle that would be largely distributed, Jean Dieuzaide became a photojournalist. Many of his reportages appeared in the international press, such as the one dedicated to the marriage of two tightrope walkers and published by "Life." Jean Dieuzaide also photographed for "documentary" works: Gascogne, Portugal, Périgord, Languedoc, etc.
