This book pays homage to the photographic work of Michel Thersiquel (1944-2007), from the perspective of portraiture, of which he was a recognized master. Outdoors or in the studio, most often in natural light, he produced large series that marked the history of this art at the end of the 20th century. He also reported on the intimate, with portraits of the rural class in Brittany of a unique sensitivity, very far from the postcard. We meet, eye to eye, anonymous people, heroes and heroines of everyday life that the one nicknamed "Thersi" glorifies like no one else.
