TREWEY, F?licien (1848 ? 1920). PORTRAITS OF F?LICIEN TREWEY. Paris: Photo du Globe, ca. 1890. Four images of the famed French juggler, pantomimist, and magician with a newspaper in his hands; in the fourth image, he reacts to the news. Boudoir card format with photographer?s printed mount, 8 ? x 5 1/8?. Old notation in lower margin, minor foxing. Though best remembered as a variety entertainer of great skill ? Trewey was the self-proclaimed ?master? of hand shadows, chapeaugraphy, juggling and balancing feats, mimicry, and magic tricks ? he was also an early exhibitor of motion pictures under the auspices of his friend Louis Lumi?re.
