About the book: Paris is as much a city for falling in love with as it is for photographing. This visual companion to the French capital captures the chic and esprit of this metropolis through hundreds of meticulously researched images – from some of the earliest photographic views of the city by Louis Daguerre and Henry Fox Talbot to today's iconic shots of its fashion, art, and architecture.

Biography: Jean Claude Gautrand (1932–2019) is considered one of France's leading photography experts. Active as a photographer since 1960, he also made a name for himself as a historian, journalist, and critic with numerous publications. For TASCHEN, he authored the books Brassaï (2004), Paris. Portrait of a City (2011), Robert Doisneau (2014), and Eugène Atget. Paris (2016).
