30 de nov. de 2023 · Elliott Erwitt, who died at 95 on Wednesday at his home in Manhattan, was an exception. For more than six decades he used his camera to tell visual jokes, finding material wherever he strolled.
Fascinado por los perros, aunque también autor de un maravilloso retrato femenino con gato (Lucienne and cat, de 1953), los fotografió en escenarios inverosímiles, muchas veces suplantando los humores de los humanos: perros perplejos, inquisidores, melancólicos, cascarrabias, insolentes.
This tender scene captures Erwitt's first wife Lucienne Van Kan napping with their cat while pregnant with her soon-to-be-born daughter, Ellen. It was featured in the section on pregnancy in Edward Steichen's ground-breaking exhibition The Family of Man, presented in 1955 at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.
Taken in 1953, it shows a woman on a bed looking into her baby’s eyes while a cat coolly surveys the scene. The baby was Erwitt’s daughter, Ellen, and the woman was his first wife, Lucienne Matthews, who died in 2011.
