Product Info Reviews

Description:

What could be a more sophisticated combination than the elegant streets of Paris, coupled with a regal brigade of fancy French felines? For this luxurious collection of black and white photographs, Barnaby Conrad III has selected prints that reflect the fascination and deep respect Parisians have for their cats. The photographs span almost 100 years of city life and include work by the greatest French photographers including Jacques Henri Lartigue, Gilberte Brassai, and Robert Doisneau. Truly urbanized, the Parisian cat traverses city roofs, slinks over cobbled streets, and curls up in the arms of loving city dwellers. Some of the selected photographs border on the bizarre--Max Vadukul presents a collage of black and white cats flying through the air above a classic Parisian rooftop.

Cats not only fascinated great French photographers, but also captured the imagination of famous French writers. A sampling of kitty-inspired words by Collette and Baudelaire complete this elegant little book.
