Martine Franck (1938–2012)
Portrait of Paul Strand at Orgeval
1972

Strand bought the Ensign Reflex camera he
holds here in 1958, and had it retrofitted to
accommodate modern film. It is the precise
model of camera he used in the 1910s. Having
disposed of his original Ensign long ago, he was
delighted to find this ‘duplicate’, which he used
in his garden in France towards the end of his
career.
