Michel Leiris, French Writer, husband Of Louise Leiris (Galérie Louise Leiris). Paris 1983

In a high-contrast photograph from 1983, French writer Michel Leiris sits with a serious expression in Paris. Formally dressed in a dark suit and a polka-dot tie, he is positioned on a sofa before a large, framed cubist painting and a tall, stylized sculpture with a mask-like face. His aged, veined hands rest on the arm of the sofa and in his lap as he looks directly at the camera.
