DESCRIPTION:
"The iconic landmarks for which Paris is known the world over rarely feature in the photography of Nichole Robertson - which is precisely what makes her imagery so compelling, irresistible and refreshingly different." - Nicola Williams, Art of the Weekend "She seeks out culture high and low, bits of nature thriving in the city and moments of human interaction. Including more than 150 pages of vivid photographs, this volume showcases Parisian design and architecture, its iconic monuments as well as its moments of quiet, accidental splendor. Robertson's color-seeking approach is surprising, given the uniformly neutral shade that prevails in so much of Paris." - CNN Travel "A feast of color-coordinated vignettes." -- LuckyMag"This is a must-have in your design libra
Great book! slc This book was a Christmas gift for myself. My dream is to travel to Paris. The photographs capture Parisian life that while deeply rooted in its rich history, transcends seamlessly and elegantly to modern day France. This book is beautiful and inspiring.. "Brings Back Fond Memories of Paris" according to Judith L. Paris is one of my favorite cities and the photos capture the happy meanderers' visual serendipities in the neighborhoods and along the streets of the city. This type of imagery takes one back to "being there" which is a wonderful feeling - the the book is much less. Love the colors here Love how the author of the book curated the photos for it. Plus the layout of it and overall just looking at it is a pleasure. Although the subject of the photographs could have been slightly more interesting.
At once a work of art and a window into the heart of the city, Paris in Color will surprise and delight those who love art, design, color, and, of course, Paris!. An orange café chair, bright blue bicycles against a fence, a weathered white door—Nichole Robertson's sumptuous photographs of the distinctive details of Paris, all arranged by color, evoke a sense of serendipitous discovery and celebrate the city as never before. Take a journey through the world's most romantic city, traveling from color to magnificent color with this beguiling book
