Robert Doisneau liked to refer to himself as a "pecheur d'images," a fisher of images. He immersed himself in his surroundings where he waited to catch the right shot. As one of the most famous French photographers of his day, Doisneau relied on his intuition rather than rational thinking. He took pictures based on his instinct at the moment they occurred.
In 1950 he included one of his photographs, The Kiss on the Sidewalk (Le Baiser du trottoir), in Life magazine. The photograph of a man and woman kissing on a populated street in Paris (by the Hotel de Ville) has become his most famous works. Not only does it represent love and romance, it also defines Paris as the city of love.
