Jean Cocteau at Villa Santo Sospir. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1954.
This contact sheet from 1954 captures Jean Cocteau in a series of thoughtful and informal poses at the Villa Santo Sospir in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. The eight black-and-white photographs show the artist in the sunlit gardens, standing in doorways with louvered shutters, and on a balcony next to a vine-covered column. Throughout the series, which creates a strong contrast between bright exteriors and shadowed interiors, Cocteau appears pensive, raising a cigarette to his lips in one frame.
