The photographer Pierre Yves-Petit who called himself Yvon wandered the streets of Paris between the First & Second World Wars looking for the moment when the shifting light & clouds would perfectly reveal the citys ephemeral iconic beauty.

They are still sold today on Parisian quais & are eagerly sought by collectors. With an eye for startling viewpoints & unusual weather conditions Yvon photographed the city awakening at dawn in the shimmering afterglow of rain or seen over the shoulder of a gargoyle high up on a cathedral. Yvons Paris" reproduces more than one hundred of his loveliest images many made from recently discovered glass negatives. This elegant & poetic collection captures the magic of Paris at its most photogenic
