Vladimir NABOKOV. 1959. FRANCE. Paris. Photographer: Marc Riboud. ARTStor http://woodberrypoetryroom.com/?m=201508

 

To add a few words, though: recent conjectures about Shade’s insertion of “link-and-bobolink” in his verse explore a hidden meaning. What if there is none, besides a random “associative slide”?
