Henriette Theodora Marcovitch, the muse and companion of Pablo Picasso, better known as Dora Maar, was one of the most important Surrealist photographers. She spent time with André Breton, Georges Bataille, Paul Eluard and Man Ray, whose assistant she became before opening her own studio in 1945, on 29 rue d’Astorg in Paris.
