Versailles, Fountain of Enceladus

Eugène Atget

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of a man lying on a large pile of rocks in a body of water. The man is wearing a swimsuit and leaning on one elbow. He is lying on his side with his head resting on his hand. The rocks are surrounded by water. There are trees on both sides of the body of water. The trees are dense and leafy, blocking out most of the sky. The sky above the trees is light. The image is dark and moody.
