EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of clandestine passion between an adulterous woman and her lover, as they exchange a love note behind the unsuspecting back of her unsuspecting husband. The scene unfolds on a park bench, the couple's bodies subtly concealed from view by the shadows and the foliage around them. The woman, with a mischievous smile playing on her lips, passes the note to her lover, who eagerly reads its contents. The husband, oblivious to the betrayal unfolding before him, sits nearby, engrossed in his newspaper and puffing on a cigarette. The image is reminiscent of the historical concept of the cuckold, a term used to describe a husband whose wife was unfaithful. The lover's hat, adorned with a pair of horns, serves as a subtle nod to this ancient symbol of infidelity. The photograph, taken circa 1930s, captures the illicit nature of their rendezvous, the forming shapes of the smoke from their cigarettes adding to the sense of intrigue and secrecy. The love note, the hidden glances, and the pretence of normalcy all combine to create a powerful and poignant image of love and deceit.
