WRITTEN IN FRENCH

Nestled between two arms of the Seine, the Île de la Cité offers the eyes of the walker one of the most beautiful jewels in the world: Notre-Dame de Paris.

Although the chronology of the construction is difficult to establish, the authors, Alain Erlande-Brandenburg and Caroline Rose, invite us to rediscover the long work of the centuries that shaped the cathedral: genesis, piling up successive monuments, slow and perilous construction. The current structures of the building thus emerge from a tangle of complex architectural research that consecrates above all audacity and power, qualities that photography magnificently highlights by striving to make the invisible visible, such as the abundant sculptural work, moving vestiges of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.

Through a brilliantly played play of mirrors between text and image, this book shows the infinitely large and the infinitely small of a colossal work that Victor Hugo said was a "kind of human creation, powerful and fertile like the divine creation from which it seems to have stolen the double character: variety and eternity".
