Louis Séeberger, Henri Séeberger, Jules Séeberger

The collective known as the Séeberger brothers, comprising Louis Séeberger, Henri Séeberger, and Jules Séeberger, was active as photographers during a focused period spanning 1912 to 1913. Their documented output primarily consists of photographs that capture early 20th-century French society and equestrian events.

The work of the Séeberger collective is preserved in major institutional holdings, with eleven known prints represented in museum collections, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). These specific works center on high-profile racing venues, providing detailed documentation of events such as the Chantilly, Diane Prize and the Chantilly, Jockey-Club Prize. Other notable photographs feature the racetrack in Longchamps. The presence of Louis Séeberger, Henri Séeberger, and Jules Séeberger prints in such collections establishes their importance in the history of documentary photography.

As museum-quality examples of early 20th-century photographic documentation, the Séeberger brothers' works continue to be studied. Many images from this era have entered the public domain, making high-quality reproductions available today as downloadable artwork for historical reference and exhibition.
