Biography
Raoul Minot (28 September 1893 â 28 April 1945) was a French amateur photographer who was imprisoned in France and deported to Nazi concentration camps for his clandestine photography in occupied Paris in World War II. He survived internment but died in Germany soon after his liberation. Minot emerged from obscurity in the summer of 2024 as a result of a four-year investigation by Le Monde journalist Philippe Broussard around the discovery of Minot's anonymous prints.
