Somerset Maugham at his Villa Mauresque. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1953.

At his Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1953, the writer Somerset Maugham is captured in an expressive, conversational moment. Seated in a high-backed armchair behind his desk, he looks upwards, his mouth agape as if mid-sentence, gesturing with open palms. Strong light from a curtained window illuminates his face and textured suit jacket. On the desk before him, an ashtray and a pair of eyeglasses are visible.
