Lartigue

There is a picture by Lartigue I especially like. Taken at the A.C.F Grand Prix, in 1912.
Showing energy, the joy of a man about car racing.


Another one is Guitty (Marguerite Boucard) in 1905.
A woman running along the shore looking at the sea. A bit blurry, enhancing the movement.
Nostalgic because of the sea but not dreamy. The curiosity of the woman, she seems like looking precisely at something.
Enjoying being at the sea. Dynamic.

A dreamy picture is 'Bibi in Marseille, 1928'.
A woman having one hand at one of her ear, she looks like listening to something or just immersed in her thoughts. Two big ships behind her.
