On the Two-Man Go Cart

Lartigue began taking photographs as a seven-yearold around 1900, but was only discovered by the ‘photography world’ in the 1960s. The exhibition of his work mounted by the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1963 created a sensation. Since then scores of books on Lartigue have appeared, and many of his photographs have been reprinted. His dynamic snapshotlike style was widely imitated.
