Saul Steinberg‘s paper masks portraits are like a summer breeze for the mind, they make us very happy. What little does one need: paper and pencil, well and a camera of course. Inge Morath and Saul Steinberg started these series in the 1950s, the project continued into the 1960s. These friends had a lot of fun making these photo’s, you can tell cause of the good vibes they give.
