Description from the seller

I wanted to create a confusion between the shape of this bell pepper and a man's back. This image obviously refers to the photo by E. Weston, whom I greatly admire; but mine is much less explicit! I worked in a studio with a 4 x 5 inches camera.

Jacques Villégier is a French advertising photographer.
It was a dance photo that set me on the path. For about ten years, I traveled from studios to theaters. Some of these images were acquired by the National Library.
In my career, I have always set aside one or two days each month for personal work to free myself from the constraints of the profession and reconnect with the amateur I have always been: improbable still lifes, portraits or reports without commission... for pleasure and emotion. These works are intended for exhibitions but also interest publishers.
