In Memory of : Denis Brihat (1928-2024)

Denis Brihat died. Solangehis wife, has just announced it to us.
It is the last of the great dinosaurs of French photography which is disappearing.
An unusual character.
Jean-Jacques and I had the chance to work with him for several summers in a row.
I remember the last lunch in their house in Lubéron on the heights of Bonnieux with an extraordinary view.
The leg of lamb on the wood fire in the fireplace a little overcooked will gently reproach Solange, the vegetables and salads from the garden, one of his passions and then he begins to tell the story of his coming to the region and then time no longer counts.
His arrival in the Luberon, the early cabin, the people of the region, this house that he built end to end, his workshop, the students, and then all these people who came to visit him.
We leave, Jean-Jacques and I, very moved by these confidences of a lifetime.
We kiss you Solange.

A joy to find again.
