In 1954, after the success of her novel "Bonjour Tristesse," Françoise Sagan took up residence at the Carlton Hotel in Cannes. Here, she works on her next book, "Un certain Sourire," from a large, upholstered armchair. Dressed in a dark turtleneck sweater and ballet flats, she holds a portable typewriter on her lap, her hand poised above the keys as she looks toward the camera with a slight smile. Daylight from a window illuminates the room's intricately patterned carpet.
