Pau Audouard is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Pau Audouard spent his days behind a camera, not a paintbrush, snapping portraits in Havana’s late-1800s streets. He caught actors off-guard mid-performance, their faces lit by gas lamps, and sold the prints to theater-goers the next morning. His real trick?

Making still photos feel alive, like you’re standing in the wings watching. Hunt down his “Guy Little Theatrical Photograph” online; zoom in on the actor’s shadow and you’ll see Audouard’s trick in action.
