Georges Simenon and his wife Denise on a market in Cannes 1955.

Georges Simenon, pipe in mouth and smiling broadly, accompanies his wife Denise at a market in Cannes, 1955. Dressed in a fedora, vest, and patterned bow tie, the writer observes as Denise, her hair styled in an intricate updo, completes a transaction with a vendor over a display of fruit. The candid scene unfolds under the covered roof of the market, with a bunch of bananas hanging from the wooden beams above.
