Ron Wilson Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) There are numerous photos of the famous inventor Charles Wheatstone, there's a dandy pic of Charlie Jeffries, photos of members of the Crabb family, as well as images of great concertinists like Regondi and Blagrove and the generations of Matusewitches. There are several photos of Louis Lachenal's daughter Marie, who was married to Edwin Debenham, a portrait photographer whose studio was well established before the death of Louis Lachenal. Yet I've never seen a photo of Louis Lachenal, whose concertinas gave Wheatstone's a run for their money. As a great fan of his wonderful Edeophones, I wonder if I've somehow overlooked it . . . so what's the story? Does anyone here know if a photo of Louis Lachenal exists?

Chris Ghent Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 He died very early, 1861; early in life, early in concertina history, and early in the history of photography. Perhaps a photo was never taken... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
