She was an April-natured, pink-cheeked girl, with eyes that would have made any jeweller in England think of his trade - one who evidently took her day in the daytime, frequently caught the early worm, and had little to do with yawns or candlelight.

- The Hand of Ethelberta (1876) by Thomas Hardy

Women reading on lake. Bibi et Michèle Verly, Lac d'Aix-les-Bains, mai 1928. Jacques Henri Lartigue (French, 1894-1986).

Lartigue thought of himself primarily as a painter and was only ‘discovered’ as a photographer in 1963, at the age of 69, when an exhibition of his work opened at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Throughout the course of his life Lartigue created an amazing body of photographs, filling scores of albums with his prints and written diaries.
