Gustave Roud (1897 – 1976) Swiss poet and photographer who often used his images alongside his words.
In 1908, Roud, along with his parents and sister, moved to a farm inherited from his maternal grandfather. He would spend the rest of his life living there.

His most famous work is "Air de la solitude".
