Somerset Maugham at his at Villa Mauresque. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1954

Writer Somerset Maugham sits up in bed at his Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1954, captured in the intimate act of lighting his pipe. Dressed in a polka-dotted pajama top over a collared shirt, he is propped against large pillows as smoke billows around his face. On the unmade bed before him rests a folded copy of the French newspaper "L'AURORE". The room is furnished with a tall bookshelf, an ornate headboard, and a classical statue, creating a quiet, personal atmosphere.
