Michel Leiris, French writer, husband of Louise Leiris (Galérie Louise Leiris). Paris 1983

With a direct and contemplative gaze, the French writer Michel Leiris stands in his dimly lit Paris study in 1983. His left hand rests on the edge of a worn, leather-topped desk. Strong light from a tall window floods the room, casting his figure into deep shadow. Affixed to an upper pane is a striking drawing of a woman's face in a cubist style, while a wrought-iron balcony is visible beyond the open window.
