Intussen, in het leven van Robert Doisneau
Het hele leven1940–1945
Forges papers for the Resistance
From 1940 until the end of the war Doisneau used his skills as a draughtsman, letterer and engraver to forge passports and identity papers for the French Resistance.
1945–1979
Portraits of Picasso, Braque, Léger, Cocteau and Giacometti
From the post-war years through the 1970s Doisneau produced children's books, advertising photography and celebrity portraits — Alberto Giacometti, Jean Cocteau, Fernand Léger, Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso. He worked with writers and poets such as Blaise Cendrars and Jacques Prévert, and credited Prévert with giving him the confidence to photograph everyday street scenes.
1946
Returns to Rapho for good
After the war Doisneau returned to freelance work, selling photographs to Life and other international magazines; he briefly joined the Alliance Photo agency but rejoined Rapho in 1946 and stayed with it throughout his working life, despite Henri Cartier-Bresson's invitation to join Magnum Photos.
1947
Daughter born: Francine Deroudille
1947
Birth of his daughter Francine
Doisneau's younger daughter Francine was born. Later he disagreed with her for charging an “indecent” daily fee of £2,000 for his work on a beer advertising campaign — he wanted only the rate of an “artisan photographer”.
1947
Kodak Prize
In 1947 Doisneau received the Kodak Prize.
