...doctoral dissertation, Braudel decided on King Philip. But "little by little," recalls Braudel, "Philip II attracted me less and less, and the Mediterranean more and more." There was also the influence of Febvre, who had himself done work on Spain. "Philip II and the Mediterranean, a good subject," he wrote Braudel. "But why not the Mediterranean and Philip II?

The camera is focused on the sitter's eyes, and the photo's depth of field is so small that the tip of the nose blurs, and one can see as many differences of sharpness in Close's beard or Linda's tangle of rusty curls as among the stalks of a wheatfield...
