Willy Ronis (1910-2009)

Gordes, Noël 1957 Period silver print on paper, captioned and stamped by the photographer on the back 39.7 x 28 cm Provenance: > Galerie Baudoin Lebon, Paris (label on back) > Collection of Monsieur A., Nice Condition report: Inset "Photography is about looking. You either have it or you don't. It can be refined with life, but you don't start out with just any cheap camera. Adventure isn't measured in kilometers. Great emotions are not only born in front of the Parthenon, the Bay of Rio or the Zambezi Falls. Emotion can be experienced simply in front of a child's smile as he walks home with his schoolbag, a tulip in a vase on which a ray of sunlight falls, the face of the woman you love, a cloud above your house." Willy Ronis --- Photography is all about the eye. You either have it or you don't. It can be honed by life. It can be refined with life, but you don't start out with just any cheap camera. Adventure is not measured in kilometres. Great emotions are not only born in front of the Parthenon, the Bay of Rio or the Zambezi Falls. You can feel emotion simply when you see the smile of a child coming home with his schoolbag, a tulip in a vase on which a ray of sunlight falls, the face of the woman you love, a cloud above your house.
