Le Voyage amoureux – Nicole Canet, Galerie Au Bonheur du Jour, 2010

A rare visual archive of intimacy and survival across the Maghreb and the Orient. Drawing from photographs dating 1870–1960, this volume assembles studio portraits and documentary images of courtesans, dancers and prostitutes, tracing a parallel social history often excluded from official narratives. Published in a limited edition of 1,000 copies, it brings together 300 photographs with texts by Étienne Cance and Nicole Canet, forming a substantial 328-page study of desire, colonial fantasy and female agency.
