Collage de Paris

The original impression from my first visit in the early 2010s,

before Charlie Hebdo attack, Bataclan night and Notre-Dame de Paris fire.

 

Watched some cliche but lovely films,

read some books of E. Hemingway & C. Boudelaire,

studied albums of Brassaï, H. Cartier-Bresson, R. Doisneau & M. Riboud,

then strolled through Paris like a nameless flâneur.
