When Françoise Sagan became famous, having written "Bonjour Tristesse", she went to live at Cannes in a room at the Carlton Hotel and worked there on her novel "Un certain Sourire". Cannes 1954.
In 1954, after the success of her debut novel "Bonjour Tristesse," Françoise Sagan took a room at the Carlton Hotel in Cannes to work on "Un certain Sourire." In this quiet moment, the young author kneels on the patterned carpet, deeply focused on cleaning a vinyl record on her portable, suitcase-style turntable. Strong sunlight streams in, creating a bright diagonal band of light that illuminates the intimate scene, with other records and album sleeves resting on the floor nearby.
