La Californie, Cannes 1957. - Photo by Edward Quinn

La Californie, Cannes 1957.

At the Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1957, a small, abstract figurine crafted from folded paper stands in sharp focus on a wooden surface. The figure’s squarish head is defined by a central ridge and two distinct, hand-drawn eyes. Its tapered body is adorned with a drawn necklace and two circles representing breasts. The grainy, black-and-white photograph captures the object against an out-of-focus studio background, highlighting the simply rendered form.
