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

In a formal black-and-white portrait taken in Paris in 1983, French writer Michel Leiris is seated on a plush sofa. Dressed in a tailored suit and a polka-dot tie, he gazes directly at the camera with a serious expression. Behind him, a large cubist-style painting hangs on the wall, framed by light-colored curtains. The natural light highlights his face and the texture of his suit, while the photograph’s distinct film grain lends a classic feel to the composition.
