“Adieu la peine et le plaisir Adieu les roses Adieu la vie adieu la lumière et le vent Marie-toi sois heureuse et pense à moi souvent Toi qui va demeurer dans la beauté des choses Quand tout sera fini plus tard en Erivan Un grand soleil d'hiver éclaire la colline Que la nature est belle et que le cœur me fend La justice viendra sur nos pas triomphants Ma Mélinée ô mon amour mon orpheline Et je te dis de vivre et d'avoir un enfant”
— Louis Aragon, Strophes pour se Souvenir

Girl photographed by Hugh Mangum c. 1909
Mangum’s photographs are notable for their informality, which was unusual for the period. I just adore the series of this girl, she’s such a beauty.
