French photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue (1894-1986) is playful and whimsical in his tiny contact prints, especially in those taken before World War I. The medium was new; war lay ahead (two of them, actually); and the rich young artist was free to indulge his love of airplanes, blimps, pretty girls, and race cars. Absent are any trace of politics or economic hardship. His world is lost, enchanted, innocent—and only discovered abroad in 1962, when the boy—then an old man—finally became a world-famous photographer. BRIAN MILLER
