Old man of the sea



I love studies of character and this is one. While I was trying to discover where he came from I came across this. It’s the same man, can you see the stairs in the background? I still don’t know much about the postcard, but I’ve found a lovely new site to visit (it is worth taking the time to scroll down). It is in French but the drawings speak all languages.

How interesting that you found another shot of the same man. Can't you just see the sea in him?

Picean: I think that the photographers in the past worked more like painters. The old postcards are definately special.

Pure harmony. Looking at that man really make me feel calm.

Love your blog. Sorry I can't be online as often as I used to be.
