Bernard Plossu. St. Louis, Senegal, 1976. Fresson print
Photo Credit: Heritage AuctionsFrench photographer Bernard Plossu, recognised for his evocative travel photography, was born in Vietnam in 1945. His photograph from St. Louis, Senegal, with its rich culture and history, perfectly captures his dreamlike and spontaneous style, which has become celebrated in contemporary photography, particularly in France. The Fresson print method enriches the scene with its signature depth and warmth.
The candid photograph features a lamb standing pensively against a wall rich with the textures of aged, peeling paint. Shuttered windows and a doorframe lend a sense of homeliness, while a purple cloth provides a splash of unexpected colour. The lamb, positioned as a powerful focal point, seems as if lifted from a classical painting, beautifully juxtaposed with the striking purple cloth. Together, they create a composition full of life and colour against the backdrop of weathered architectural elements.
