In 2004, Philippe and Marion Jacquier, former film producers, created the Lumière des Roses gallery in Montreuil. Their pioneering work on exploring and revaluing anonymous photography quickly made them known to French and international collectors and institutions, who found themselves at their Paris Photo booth, where their “photographic harvest” was presented. In 2013, the couple was joined by Zoé Barthélémy, freshly graduated from the ENS-Louis-Lumière. In 2017, they started to collaborate with contemporary artists whose works resonate with the old photography collection which constitutes the base of the gallery.
