Today, few people in Hungary are familiar with the name Ergy Landau, even though the Hungarian-born artist was one of the most popular female photographers in Paris between the 1920s and the 1950s.
Landau left Hungary after the First World War, settled in Paris and opened her studio, where she worked until her death. The exhibition at the Mai Manó House and the accompanying monograph are the result of the processing of the previously unpublished Ergy Landau collection.
