Space Writing, Marcel Duchamp | Man Ray 1937

What is striking throughout Man Ray Portraits is the realization of the extent to which we have seen Parisian society through Man Ray’s eyes and lens. Not only are the people in his photographs familiar, but so are the images: his portraits of Picasso, Braque, Duchamp, Hemingway, Joyce, Breton, Schoenberg, Stein, and dozens of other luminaries are among the most celebrated and familiar images of these figures.
