Elizabeth and Me, Paris 1931

"Elizabeth and Me, Paris" is a 1931 black and white photograph by the influential Hungarian photographer Andre Kertesz. This intimate portrait of a woman captured in a moment of quiet reflection is a classic example of Kertesz’s signature style, characterized by its stark composition and focus on everyday life. The image’s simple composition draws the viewer’s attention to the woman's face and the hand resting delicately on her shoulder, emphasizing the strong emotional connection between the subjects, whether lovers, friends, or family.
