Engrossed in a serious conversation, writer Louis Aragon (left, in profile) and politician Maurice Thorez stand face-to-face at the Galerie H. Matarasso in Nice. They are attending the 1956 private viewing for the exhibition “Pablo Picasso. Un Demi-Siècle de Livres Illustrés.” Between the two men, gallery owner Henri Matarasso is partially visible in the crowded room. The candid photograph focuses on the intimate exchange between the two central figures.
