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

Writer Somerset Maugham takes breakfast in bed at his Villa Mauresque in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1954. Clad in a patterned dressing gown over a white shirt, he intently stirs a cup on a tray holding a silver coffee pot. His well-appointed bedroom features a tall bookshelf overflowing with volumes and an ornate wooden headboard. A classical sculpture stands nearby, and a folded newspaper rests on the blanket, completing a scene of scholarly domesticity.
