Eugène Atget Old Paris Exhibition

Eugène Atget, French photographer, born in 1857. 
Noted for his wonderful photographs documenting the architecture and street scenes of Paris.
This weekend we went to see an exhibition of his work, Old Paris, held at the Art Gallery NSW. 
Truly inspirational...
I was delighted to see photographs from his own home, which reminded me of our own house!
I recommend a visit to the exhibition, a very special collection of photographs.
All photographs Eugène Atget

How wonderful, that must have been a beautiful exhibition.

I always collect some books in my Amazon basket to order later and I already have a book with his Paris photography in there. Now I'm even more eager to order it sooner than planned!
