More information
Among the many portraits of small children that Strömholm encountered on his travels, this image of two small boys with handbags stands out. The two meet the photographer's gaze with a curious yet serious expression. The image is typical of Strömholm's many portraits of children, with a psychological depth characterised by loneliness and isolation that can perhaps be found in Strömholm's childhood.
"Paris, 1962" is one of Strömholm's most beloved motifs and has become iconic.
