Hans Hartung with his Leica M3. Saint-Paul-de-Vence 1961.

Painter Hans Hartung aims his Leica M3 camera directly at the viewer, his right eye crinkling in a smile while his left is hidden behind the viewfinder. Photographed in Saint-Paul-de-Vence in 1961, the artist is captured in strong sunlight streaming through a window, which creates a composition of bright highlights and deep vertical shadows. His right hand is poised over the shutter button as his left supports the camera from below.
