Doisneau took this famous portrait of the clochard Coco, a well-known figure in Les Halles, Paris in 1952. A few years later he combined this portrait with the image of a camera lens to be illustrated on a publication cover which was never realized. – Minimal buckling in edges, otherwise in excellent condition.
