ITIER, ALPHONSE-EUGÈNE-JULES (1802–1877) French photographer Jules Itier was born in Paris on 8th April 1802, the son of a military commandant, and entered the French Customs Service at the age of seventeen. Before he was thirty, he had achieved the rank of Inspector. His interest in photography dates from 1840 when he was introduced to the daguerreotype, and over the following years, his work and his enthusiasm for travel took him and his camera to many parts of the world. His surviving oeuvre includes daguerreotypes made in Senegal (1842), India (1844), Ceylon (1844), Guadaloupe (1843) and Guyana (1843). He arrived in China as part of a French delegation to sign a trade agreement

in 1844, producing many fine images in Canton, Macau and elsewhere in 1844 and 1845. Those images survive as the earliest photographs ever taken in that country. In 1845 he travelled to the Phillipines and Borneo—he reportedly bought supplies of plates and chemicals in Manilla—and later that year arrived in Egypt. A number of fine images of the antiquities of Egypt survive from his journeys in 1845 and 1846. Returning to France in 1846, he continued to pursue his interests in photography until the late 1850s. His images were rediscovered in the late 1970s. John Hannavy, S. 758/759
