Portrait de Delphine Fix (épouse Salvador), (1831-1864), (actrice)

Léon Crémière began as an assistant to André-Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri before opening his own studio in Paris in 1862, specialising in the photography of hunting dogs and horses. From his studio at 28 rue Laval, he became Napoleon III's house photographer and publisher in 1866. He used the pseudonym "de Lazare". He published collections of photographs and in 1866 founded Le Centaure, a weekly illustrated magazine on sport, hunting, agriculture and art, which was published until 1868. The etchings published were made from photographs. The illustrator Crafty published several drawings and his first two collections, Snob à Paris and Snob à l'Exposition, were published by Crémière in 1866 and 1867. In 1882, he became the editor of Le Chenil, a newspaper published by Lemercier. In the same year, he published the Stud Book Continental (SBC), which was replaced in 1885 by the Livre des origines français ("Book of French Origins") of the Société Centrale Canine.
