The photographer was Herbert List (1903-1975) and the picture was also published in "75 years of photography - Leica". A few days ago a documentary has been broadcast on Arte, a (considered as very) serious French-German TV. It was said that this photograph was made with a Rollei and that H. List discovered Leica (M body) several years later only. So who is wrong? How many Rollei, Hassie, Sinar, Linhof photographs in the Leica catalogs??? :< I think that the most important is the subject and the quality of the picture, of course, but any comment about this?
