Image: 29.7 x 19.8 cm; sheet: 39.6 x 29.6 cm "Le Flore being closed for the vacations, I find myself on the terrace of Les Deux Magots. With all the women who pass by, I experience complete and brief love affairs. When I catch a glimpse of them in the distance, and their silhouette appeals to me, it's immediately the start of our romance. The closer they get, the more I love them. At ten meters, it's passion, at six, painful jealousy, at four, I can't take it anymore, it's already the heartbreak of the break-up, and when they pass me, finally delivered and relaxed, I can smile calmly at them, they've become friends, and we can exchange the knowing wink of those who have shared many things together and remember."
