A close-up photograph of a brown curtain tied with a decorative rope tassel against a softly lit background, with a signature and date in the lower right corner.

A photograph featuring a series of colorful, vertically hanging fabrics in shades of red and orange, partially obscuring a chalkboard with handwritten text in the background. The edge of a weathered window frame is visible on the right. The image has a white border with handwritten numbers and a signature at the bottom.

A stack of clean white plates sits on a dark countertop to the right of the frame, with a warm-toned, grainy texture visible in the background. The image is framed with a white border, and there is a signature with the year 1990 at the bottom right corner.

A photograph featuring a close-up of a blue and yellow striped mooring pole, with a blurred gondola in the background on a canal, possibly in Venice. The image has a signature and the year 2000 written in the bottom right corner.

A photograph of a table setting with red napkins and stainless steel cutlery, including knives and forks, arranged on a red tablecloth. The image has a white border with a signature and the year 1984 written in the bottom right corner.

A framed photograph depicting a blurred figure of a person wearing a hat and a decorated uniform, seen through a textured glass pane with diamond-shaped lead came. The warm tones of the image suggest an indoor setting with soft lighting. The photograph is signed and dated at the bottom right.

A photograph of a baguette placed on a glass shelf, with the reflection of the bread visible on the surface. Below the shelf, the tops of several wine bottles can be seen, suggesting the setting may be a kitchen or a dining area. The image includes a signature and the year 1986 at the bottom right corner.
