Margin stains, Note: Blaise Cendrars (1887-1961), a Swiss-born writer and poet who became a naturalized French citizen, is one of the great literary figures of the XXᵉ century. Close to avant-garde circles, he made a name for himself in 1913 with La Prose du Transsibérien et de la petite Jehanne de France. An adventurer and world traveler, he forged a body of work marked by experience of the world, earning him the nickname of "bourlingueur" writer. This photograph, taken in 1961, shows him in private, in the company of his wife and cat, offering a rare and familiar glimpse of the writer at the end of his life. The image is part of the press iconography devoted to one of the leading figures in French literary life.
