In 1935, Man Ray took a series of photographs of Nusch, Paul Éluard's second wife, whom he had met in 1929. It was on these images that the poet wrote the love poems for Facile, published in a masterly layout by the poet-typographer Guy Levis Mano.

Nusch Éluard had become one of Man Ray's most important models... and was also one of Picasso's favourite models. She had just married Éluard the previous year. The Éluards remained in… Leer más
