This selection is part of a photographic collection that emerged from the secrecy to which it seemed destined. Thousands of prints, carefully organized in small plastic albums, filled three suitcases discovered after the author’s death by second-hand dealers tasked with clearing out his apartment. Spanning a decade—from 1996 to 2006—this body of work reflects a fetish for legs clad in tights, photographed indiscriminately in the street or on television. Its author, a computer technician who worked for the postal service and lived in Paris, sometimes even became an active participant in his own impulses.
