It's a "fan-site" for the psychoanalyst, and they have a large gallery of pictures of him, with various other people. I stumbled across it there, and was struck by the entire party.<BR/>Although the second shot, with the dog, is clearly from the same time and place (apart from the whole, "stepping in the same river twice" thing), I can't remember if the second take is also from Lacan.com, or if I scooped it from Google Images. Both photos do come up on Google Images, esp. if you search for the name of the play. (Lacan.com lists that info, I forget.) If I were you, I would check the Lacan site first, because being an intellectual site, they would probably be privy to more detailed information like the identity of the photographer, ownership, etc. <BR/>What is your forth-coming book about, if you don't mind sharing?<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Adam Rothsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15772092849609795604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641135600347514005.post-15696236840638994692008-07-07T03:35:00.000-07:002008-07-07T03:35:00.000-07:00Hi Adam, I'm researching pictures for a forthcomin...Hi Adam, I'm researching pictures for a forthcoming book at the moment and would absolutely love to get my hands on these photographs, particularly the one with Camus stroking the dog. They're proving incredibly tricky to track down. I know it's a long shot, but do you have any inkling as to where you got it from? Any help very very much appreciated!

These are actual people with relationships, friendships, and more often than not, problematic personalities. Just like college students, the intellectuals tend to have dramatic relationships. My favorite example is that Lacan married Bataille's wife. psychoanalyze that!<BR/><BR/>And don't worry, we will be remarkable.
