Maurice BONNEL (1923-2019) Luxembourg Gardens, 1953 Silver print On back, signed, dated and titled by Christine d'Essernio Size including margins: 30 x 40 cm Note: Maurice Bonnel belongs to the tradition of humanist photography, finely capturing Parisian life at its simplest and truest. His attentive, empathetic eye reveals the poetry of ordinary gestures. In this scene from the Jardin du Luxembourg in 1953, street vendors, passers-by and strollers form a lively tableau, punctuated by the lines of the grid and the play of light. The image accurately captures the atmosphere of a lively, popular Paris. This silver print, signed, titled and dated, captivates with its rich detail and timeless charm. A luminous work, a sensitive testimony to an era and an art of living.
