Description

Eugène Atget Paris presents a unique portrait of a bygone era. This comprehensive collection gathers over 500 photographs from the Atget archives at Musée Carnavalet and the Bibliothèque Historique de la Ville de Paris, showcasing his remarkable eye for the urban environment. Atget's photographic style, which often focused on architecture, landscape, and artifacts, was not widely recognized during his lifetime. However, after his death, his work gained attention from various artistic circles, including the Dada and Surrealist avant-garde. This TASCHEN edition celebrates Atget's outstanding contribution to modern photography. The book features a diverse range of images, taken down main streets and side streets, past shops and churches, through courtyards and arcades across all 20 arrondissements of Paris.
