Ernest At Home
Ernest in front of the fire at the apartment above the sawmill, 113 rue Notre Dame des Champs. He is holding his son, Bumby, in the second shot. These photos are from 1924.
I can't believe this - criticism? About Hem? I'll admit the tie is a bit too tight for anything I'd wear. So, I think I will change the title, to Ernest At Home. Don't you like the beret at least?
Hey Paul, how is it going? No visits for a while & even Ame's come by looking for you & Carlos.
I have to tell you, when I saw this picture, I thought stright away of a well-known Portuguese singer by the name of Vitorino. He has never knowingly been seen without the black beret, or his moustache. I couldn't have imagined that Vitorino could have anything much in common with Hem, but there you go! yes, a strange photo indeed...
thank you for your passage on my blog. does question what everyone have to pose to you, why a blog on Hemingway?
This Weekend, I propose on my photo blog on Martel. Before and After. And amusing, I start with Delfour-Couderc drapery, it was the house of the late arrears Grandparent of Olivier (DP Evry) (A friend, it is him which me advises to make a blog) My blog photographs on the town of Martel
I really like this photo. I think it looks good in black and white. Not sure it would have had the same effect if it would have been in color. There's a mysterous look about him.
so he was relaxing at home in suit and in tie. Or just posing for the cam like this?:)
ReplyDeleteBah, he was just POSING.
ReplyDeleteStill a handsome writer, though. :)

Hi Paul,
ReplyDeleteAnother nice photo from those nostalgic days. Last year I searched for that address but unfortunately 113 is now an ugly building.
Looking so handsome & smart during that time in 1924 is awesome Paul :D
ReplyDeletethank you for your visit with Martel. Your blog, gave me desire for reading again Hemingway.

Handsome little devil, isn't he ;-)
ReplyDeleteYes, at that time, you'd never waste film - it was always a big production and you'd be at your best and posing...
Very true, Isabella - "snapshots" were a big deal.
