my love of topiary continues.
eugene atget
saint-cloud 1921-22
his pictures of paris remind me of another book i recently read;
down and out in paris and london by george orwell.
(i should probably start reading lighter reading matter some time soon...)
beautiful. thanks.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful Eugene Atget images - I missed the Modern Photography program it must have been past my bedtime.
ReplyDeleteHere's my humble topiary offering - some images I took about 10 years ago of Daichi-ji.

ReplyDeleteI love these images! I just did my own post on gardens featuring a photo by Atget: ellenitza. Stop by when you have a minute.

ReplyDeletei think i recognise the garden in 'l'Anneé dernière a Mariënbath', could it be the same garden?
