Description:
This photograph is the first of a triptych that seeks to demonstrate the themes of non-communication between individuals – so dear to Antonioni – who find themselves in a bedroom. Although captured in intimacy, the couple do not look at each other. They seem to be absorbed in different thoughts. The inspiration comes from the relationship portrayed in the film between Monica Vitti and Alain Delon, here played by Irene Grasso and Carlo Caracciolo.
