Alberto Giacometti. Inauguration of the Fondation Maeght, Saint-Paul-de-Vence 1964.

At the 1964 inauguration of the Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, the sculptor Alberto Giacometti is caught in an unposed moment. Harsh light from the left highlights the texture of his skin and wavy, disheveled hair, casting his face in deep shadow. With a knowing, slightly crooked smile and eyes crinkled at the corners, he looks down and to the right, a cigarette held in his hand. In the background, other guests at the crowded social event remain less in focus.
