Summary

Paris Changing is a follow-up to the successful New York Changing. Between 1888 and 1927 Eugene Atget produced thousands of photographs of outdoor Paris--from its great public buildings and churches, through residences, restaurants and stores to gardens, parks and people. Over 70 of Atget's images are reproduced here. Maps indicating the location of sites shown in the photographs allow the reader to journey through Paris following Atget's footsteps. In re-photographing the sites Atget chose, Christopher Rauschenberg has chosen to use the distinctive mood and characteristics of the earlier photos. An epilogue by Rosamond Bernier and essays by Clark Worswick and Alison Nordstrom complete the package.
