AGNES VARDA - Lot 194
AGNES VARDA Behind the camera... during the shooting of the film "La Pointe courte" (with Silvia Monfort and Philippe Noiret), 1955. Photo, vintage silver print, annotated on back. Note: This image is of major documentary interest: it captures Varda in her role as director at a seminal period in her career, often considered the precursor of the New Wave. The presence of the technical apparatus (camera, crew) reinforces the historical dimension of the shot, testifying to the production conditions of French independent cinema in the 1950s. Period photographs showing directors in action - and even more so an essential figure such as Agnès Varda - are much rarer than portraits of actors. They attract a specific audience of collectors with an interest in film history and auteur figures.
