Paris (Compact Edition) captures the City of Light, love, and savoir vivre in an extraordinary way. This world-class capital is one of the most photographed destinations on the planet, with its charm immortalised by both tourists and professionals alike. However, this brief preview showcases just how special this city really is.

The book features the work of French photographer Serge Ramelli, who has never showcased Paris as impressively, meaningfully, or dramatically as in this edition. Ramelli's vision is unmistakably inspired by cinema, and he brings his passion for filmmaking and admiration for directors like Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Ridley Scott into his photography.

Ramelli's interpretation of Paris transforms the bustling metropolis into a place both impressive and fabulous. The photographs pulsate with life both day and night, yet the city appears almost devoid of people. It becomes a heavily symbolic place with many facets to explore, shining with an inimitable light.

Selling Points:

  • The metropolis of Paris, presented with Serge Ramelli's dramatic vision.
  • A fabulous and fascinating tour of the city in an incomparable light.
  • Film and photography meld into a black-and-white work of art.
  • Now available in a small flexicover edition.

Featuring 100 black and white photographs, Paris (Compact Edition) offers an unparalleled visual journey through one of the world's most enchanting cities.
