Hippolyte Jouvin began his career as a lithographer before turning to photography. He was one of the first photographers to use the wet collodion process, which allowed for sharper and more detailed images. He also experimented with various printing techniques, including photogravure, in which an image is etched onto a copper plate and then printed on paper. Jouvin's work was exhibited at the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1867, where he won a gold medal for his photogravures. He also published several books of his photographs, including Paris Illuminé, which showed images of the city at night. Jouvin's legacy in photography is significant, as he helped to advance the technology and techniques of the medium. His work also captured important moments in French history, such as the rebuilding of Paris after the Franco-Prussian War. Hippolyte Jouvin died in Paris, France, in 1889.
