Photos of Therese
The true face of Thérèse
Céline Martin, Thérèse's sister, entered the Carmel in 1894. She brought a camera there: she took many photos of her sister Thérèse and of the community.
Remember that at that time, there was an exposure time of about 9 seconds, which gave a somewhat fixed character to the faces.
It was able to make admirably good use of the equipment, altogether rudimentary, of the time and of the means of development available to it in a makeshift laboratory.
Among the 47 preserved photographs of Thérèse, Céline took 41 (all those where Thérèse wears the black veil).
