Yesterday I finally managed to see the beautiful Willy Ronis exhibition that took place at the Monnaie de Paris building. It was ending that day and I really feel lucky not to have missed it. He was a fabulous photographer and the exhibition showed some famous pictures like the little Parisian boy with his baguette (see below) but also others less famous and still very touching. A real Master.
This picture is truly lovely. So innocent. I love the fact that the baguette it bigger than him!

I'll bet it was a great exhibition! Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteI had hoped to see it, but it's not to be.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the picture of the woman at the sink they used on the posters in the Métro. I'm sorry I missed this one!
ReplyDeleteCette photo est une des seules de Willy Ronis qui ne soit pas tout à fait spontanée, en effet le photographe a demandé au petit garçon de courir avec sa baguette, ce qu'il a fait avec beaucoup de bonne humeur visiblement! Il existe de nombreux livres de Willy Ronis mais mon préféré reste un tout petit bouquin paru chez Folio, "Ce jour-là", dont le texte est aussi intéressant que les photos. Bonne soirée!
ReplyDeleteMerci Alice pour le commenataire et le conseil concernant le livre. Je vais me le procurer.
ReplyDeleteI really appreciate your work, especially this work is very well done! nice PB
