Yann Arthus-Bertrand, internationally bestselling photographer of The Earth From Above, shares over 200 aerial photographs of the City of Light. The unique point of view shows Paris in a completely different way: the reader will take a dive into cozy little streets, rooftops, courtyards, monuments... the unique poetry of each neighborhood is highlighted. In a way that is impossible from street level, you can see the old neighborhoods of Montmartre, Montparnasse and Ménilmontant; iconic historical monuments like the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame or the Invalides; or perhaps modern Paris like La Défense or the new neighborhoods around the Bibliothèque nationale. Organized around the major quarters (the banks of the Seine, Ile de la Cité and Ile Saint-Louis, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Luxembourg, the Latin Quarter; Austerlitz-Tolbiac, "Chinatown"; Orsay, les Invalides; Montparnasse, Denfert-Rochereau; the Eiffel Tower, the Champ de Mars, Trocadéro; l Etoile, the Champs-Elysées, Place de la Concorde; Madeleine, the Opera; Pigalle, Montmartre; canal Saint-Martin, Belleville, Ménilmontant, Oberkampf, Père Lachaise; Bastille, the Marais, les Halles; the Louvre, Palais-Royal, les Tuileries; la Défense), this bilingual edition paints an intimate and unique portrait of Paris, the city of lights.
