A year after arriving in the city he joined the Gesellschaft zur Förderung der Amateur-Photographie (Society for the Promotion of Amateur Photography) and took part in its exhibitions over the next two years. He designed the posters and won a medal for his photographs. He records that in 1898, while in Paris, he took classes given by Henri Matisse. In 1899 he moved to Dresden. His work was to be found in the Berlin Secessionist exhibitions of 1903-07. In 1906 he traveled to North Africa and the south of France, and spent World War I in Switzerland." |

XXIV. The critic Ludwig Schrank, the founder of the Photographische Korrespondenz, a journal reflecting the professional photographic community, weighed in with his thoughts in 1900 on this photograph by René Le Begue: "In a terrible, treeless, rocky gorge, there lies a beautiful, totally nude model, resting on a stone, just tumbled from the heights. (Since the artist is French, the model is female, naturally.) Her hair falls freely over the boulders, her left hand dangles like that of a corpse. Actually, a ghastly picture. However, René Le BÞgue knew how to introduce a redeeming note: with her right hand, the accident victim appears to take, ever so delicately between thumb and forefinger, a pinch of snuff…Let us admire these amateurs, who travel so far to deserts and rocky wildernesses in order to practice their art."
