Lucie Blachet
Lucie Blachet (1828–1907), was a Dutch photographer.[1] She was one of the first female photographers in the Netherlands.
Life and work
[edit]Blachet was born in Saint-Mandé, the illegitimate daughter of 18-year-old Lucie Françoise Blachet, a Cirque Olympique rider. She later lived in Paris, where she may have met her husband-to-be. In 1850 she married the Dutch painter Jacobus van Koningsveld (1824-1866) in Amsterdam. Her husband opened a photography studio in The Hague in 1859.[2]
After the death of Van Koningsveld in 1866, Blachet continued the business[3] under the name Veuve J. van Koningsveld, initially in The Hague and Scheveningen, from 1868 in Deventer. She was assisted in this by Gerrit Jan van Koningsveld (1844-1922), probably an uncle of her husband. He managed the studio in Scheveningen until 1873 and then moved to Deventer.[4] In 1891 Blachet and Van Koningsveld moved to Brummen,[5] where she died in 1907 at the age of 78.
