The perennially uninspired in me (which stems way back from my retour à Manille de Séoul) has been seeking an impetus to get things here and there these past few days by my own collection of Avedon books in my shelves. I've come to the thought that my obsession with portraits comes a lot from Richard Avedon. En plus, there's also Stephen Malkmus paying reference to Avedon by way of a song from his album, Real Emotional Trash, which somehow canonises my amour for all things Avedon. Enfin bon, going back to portraits, this particular one with Raymundo de Larrain and Vicomtesse Jacqueline de Ribes is a personal favourite upon which page I always go back again and again and again in that Avedon book of mine.
