About this photograph :
Le sourire de Serge
It was Serge's initiative that caused this photographer to be taken. Serge, who knew that we were working with Paris Match, demanded: "Hey, boys, what do I have to do to get into your mag?" after listing some inanities, such as "marry this or that princess" we came to the bathtub. (…) Serge added, "like that, they will stop saying that I am dirty!"
"At that time, this reportage passed almost completely unperceived, I think that of all the photos that I have taken, it is undoubtedly this one that has been most talked about "
