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

At his Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Somerset Maugham is absorbed in a game of solitaire, 1953. With a serious, concentrated expression, the writer sits at a green felt-covered table, dressed in a light tweed jacket and a dark tie. His brow is furrowed in thought as his hand reaches to move the King of Clubs. The dimly lit scene, with a table lamp and an ornate chair visible in the background, creates a quiet and intimate atmosphere.
