And I love the third one! Doisneau's work is charming - and this is a great series. Thanks for posting these. It is really nice to start the day with a smile. Hope your weekend is wonderful, also.
Hi Penny, Julie and Sharon, there are quite a few photographs in this series, these three are my favourites, they were commissioned by Life Magazine. Doisneau concealed his camera in an antique chair and angled it at the nude, then I guess he just lay in wait for the passers by.
I just noticed your Penguin version of Lady Chatterley's Lover. I found an old copy of The African Queen by C.S. Forester in one of my clean ups yesterday. Just love those old Penguin books...
These are super! Had seen the top one, but not the others - being part of a set makes the whole thimg much more amusing. He must have had a great laugh whilst doing these!
Hehe, the top one is one of Mr D's favourite ever photographs. I had no idea there were others! x
