| Summary: | For 41 years (1969-2010), Antoine Haumont, a former professor at the École des Ponts, photographed a wide variety of spaces related to sports during his university trips in France and abroad, as well as during his private trips. His wife, Nicole Haumont, bequeathed more than a thousand photographic slides and glossy prints belonging to her late husband (1935-2016). All these images, which are free of copyright, are being digitised and classified at the Poëte et Sellier library of the Paris School of Urban Planning. The ambition is to provide students and teachers access to an "Antoine Haumont" collection of images relating to leisure sports facilities and social practices, including photographs of British green-fields, fitness centres, road races, street sports, indoor tennis complexes, and cycling and walking practices in urban spaces. How can this collection of images be made to speak for itself ? By presenting twelve photos the aim of the article is to make interested audiences aware of the existence of a rich iconography dedicated to spaces and practices relating to sports (more than 1,000 images). This collection may also address the question of the ordinary landscape without excluding the wide variety of political and aesthetic questions for which such a collection of images can provide research material. |
