Somerset Maugham at his Villa Mauresque. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1953.

In the library of his Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Somerset Maugham offers a broad, joyful smile in 1953. The author is seated in an ornate, high-backed chair, dressed in a textured tweed jacket and patterned tie. Behind him, the background is dominated by a large bookcase, its shelves densely packed with books, which frames him as the central focus of the image.
