Print on baryte photographic paper, signed and numbered 1/18

Patrick Morin (1928–2002) was a French photographer renowned for his portraits of celebrities and his iconic images of cinema and fashion from the 1950s to the 1970s. He began his career as a journalist at a very young age, working notably for the Washington Post and the New York Times, before devoting himself to photography.

He collaborated with prestigious publications such as Paris Match, Vogue, or The Times, and photographed many major figures, among them Brigitte Bardot, Sophia Loren, and Jean-Paul Belmondo.

His black-and-white images, both spontaneous and elegant, today stand as a striking testament to the golden age of cinema and the visual culture of the 20th century.
