Summary/Abstract: When photography appeared it was considered by many artists and writers as a means of reviving their art, creativity, aesthetic and authenticity as well. Such was the case of Maxime Du Camp, a 19th century French writer and pioneer in photography, who became well-known among the Parisian literary circles of his epoch after writing about his jurney to the Middle East in his travel accounts, which he illustrated with his own photographs.
