In 1854 Disdéri had the largest photography studio in Paris and in that year he patented the small-format carte-de-visite format made for the calling cards that were so popular at the time. This is a portrait series of the French composer Francois Emanuel-Joseph Bazin showing the sitter in various poses and with different props.
