Written on the back of this work is: “There is war in Europe. In Switzerland, two people meet in the peaceful privacy of a photography studio - a vibrating mood. The photographer points a projector with a grid film onto the naked torso of the model. This photograph is taken.
The 1940 diary of my father reads: ‘A beautiful woman resembles a flower - she is beautiful in its external form, she has vibrations and harmony… But be happy with the beauty without searching for depth.” — Marco Bischof, son of Werner Bischof
