VANESSA REDGRAVE AND RONAN O'CASEY - Lot 41
VANESSA REDGRAVE AND RONAN O'CASEY The couple captured by photographer David Hemmings—the origin of the plot in Michelangelo Antonioni’s film *Blow-up*, 1966. Photograph, vintage silver print, unmarked reverse. 20.5 x 25.4 cm. A small corner is chipped. Note: A couple is caught off guard in a London park by the lens of Thomas, a fashion photographer played by David Hemmings. Vanessa Redgrave plays the mysterious young woman, while Ronan O’Casey plays the man accompanying her—their characters remain anonymous in the film. Back in his studio, Thomas successively enlarges his photographs and believes he discerns clues to a murder. This scene serves as the starting point for the plot of *Blow-Up*, a 1966 film by Michelangelo Antonioni that explores photography’s ability not only to reveal reality but also to render it uncertain. The film won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 1967.
