"Paris is not a city, it's a country," King Francis I once said. Paris, one of the most famous capitals in the world, is indeed a world unto itself.

The quintessence of Paris is shown through 32 of the most beautiful photographs by Brassaï, Cartier-Bresson, Depardon, Doisneau, Erwitt, Kertész, Ronis... each of whom composes a portrait of the city. Presented in the form of detachable postcards, they are collected in an elegant little notebook accompanied by a booklet, to keep as a souvenir, to give as a gift, or to send to the four corners of the world.

Man Ray - 'Solarisation' 1931
Did you know ?
It was after an accident that Man Ray and his assistant and lover Lee Miller rediscovered the technique of solarization. While developing negatives, Lee Miller accidentally turned on the light. Catastrophe, ... not really, the developed photos were as if surrounded by a luminous halo. Man Ray liked the result so much that he made it his trademark, developing and perfecting this technique.
" Photography is an immediate answer to a perpetual interrogation " Henri Cartier-Bresson
