Very surreal French pair below a hanging lantern
Very surreal French pair below a weird-floating hanging lantern. He appears to be an aesthete and writer, decadently draped in his velvet-upholstered chair, still wearing his pink pyjamas and thinking up his next romantic poem. She looks likes a real cheeky Parisian minx, possibly not ideal girlfriend material for this chap in particular. In all honesty your guess is as good as mine as to what is going on here... Date: circa 1910s

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this and enigmatic photograph from the 1910s, a very surreal French pair is depicted beneath an otherworldly, floating lantern. The man, dressed in rich velvet upholstery and still adorned in pink pyjamas, assumes the role of an aesthete and writer, lost in thought as he pens his next romantic poem. His decadent appearance and pensive expression convey an air of camp and artistic sensibility. Beside him, a real Parisian minx poses playfully, her mischievous grin and provocative stance suggesting a contrasting energy. Her appearance and demeanor challenge the traditional ideals of femininity and may not be the ideal match for the introspective poet. The composition of this image is as strange and bizarre as the pair themselves. The hanging lantern, with its ethereal glow, adds to the surreal atmosphere, casting an otherworldly light upon the scene. The historical context of this photograph is unclear, but it is a testament to the enduring allure of the surreal and the enigmatic in French culture. This photograph, with its surrealist elements and intriguing characters, invites the viewer to ponder the deeper meaning behind the scene. Is this a depiction of love and desire, or a commentary on the contrasting nature of art and life? Your guess is as good as mine, but one thing is certain - this very surreal French pair and their hanging lantern will continue to intrigue and delight viewers for generations to come.
