Seller's Description
news4 This is a totally unique undated but appears 35 years ago origin postcard by award winning photographer Willy Ronis of a real photo souvenir of the Eiffel tower on a reflection on a French classic car bonnet from 1948 - it is circa 1980s and was sourced by a collector of some of the most historic news photos in history which this postcard originated from Italy and is kept unused and mint (same as new)
Ronis' early photography was preoccupied with social unrest and the rise of the leftist Popular Front. His first published photograph shows a street demonstration on Bastille Day 1936 and he maintained a lifelong commitment to leftist causes. Despite the political intent with which Ronis' career began, he is best remembered for his romanticised vision of Paris and its inhabitants. He preferred to walk around his local area of Belleville-Ménilmontant with camera in hand rather than travel. Ronis described the spontaneity of this approach, saying, most of my photographs were taken on the spur of the moment, very quickly, just as they occurred'. Whilst this aligns Ronis' work with the decisive moment' of his friend, Cartier-Bresson, whereas the latter's photography maintained the distanced gaze of the street photographer 'par excellence', the former's is coloured by the intimacy and empathy with which he knew and understood the people of Paris.
