Description

A spectacular accordion-folded gift book that is a love letter to the city of Paris, as seen in panoramic views high above the city streetsRooftop Paris presents a unique panoramic and comprehensive visual tour of one of the world's most iconic cityscapes. From eight vantage points above the city, photographer Laurent Dequick invites you to explore, from dawn to dusk, a seemingly infinite landscape of zinc, slate, and copper from which emerge the great gilded monuments of the City of Light. Short essays focus on key Paris neighborhoods, and call-out captions on the photographs highlight notable buildings. The book is produced in an accordion-style concertina format that would stretch to 125 feet (38 meters) if fully unfolded. It is bound between hardcovers and inserted in a sturdy slipcase.

He is one of the leading photographers of YellowKorner gallery, with more than ninety locations around the world. In 2019, he published Grand Canal (Editions du Chene), an accordion-style book depicting the two banks of the Grand Canal of Venice.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
