Somerset Maugham and his canaries. Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1962.
Writer Somerset Maugham leans forward to observe his canaries on the paved patio of his Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1962. Captured in profile, his expression is focused and gentle. Dressed in a light-colored shirt and espadrilles, he stands before the tall cage under bright sunlight, which casts strong shadows against a backdrop of dense foliage. The atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation.
