Through his photographs, Guillaume Herbaut returns to the landscapes of Eugène Trutat by focusing on the Luchonnais region.

Combining archives, landscapes and still lifes, he offers us an original conversation that allows us to redefine the visual and sensitive contours of a new relationship with the world.

Guillaume Herbaut, a photojournalist, is the winner of the Résidence 1+2 Factory in 2022. For several months now, he has been working on a new series in partnership with the Toulouse Natural History Museum, based on the Eugène Trutat collection. Eugène Trutat was the first Director of the Museum, a photographer, Pyrenean geologist and naturalist at the end of the 19th century, and one of the precursors of photography. An exceptional collection of thousands of photographs on glass plates focused on everyday life from 1860 to 1910 is the starting point for Guillaume Herbaut's approach.
