Robert Doisneau (1912-1994) would have been 100 years old today. The famous French photographer behind the Google Doodle today, Saturday, April 14, 2012. The beloved photographer documented the French people while living in the city of lights. His camera sought the surreal in everyday life; the amusing juxtaposition, the faibles of human nature, all captured by an artist who was charmed by his subjects.
