Paris from above

Yann Arthus-Bertrand takes us on a privileged aerial journey over the city, represented by more than two hundred previously unpublished photos that reveal an intimate Paris from a unique perspective : the old Paris of Montmartre or Ménilmontant, the historic Paris of emblematic monuments like the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Les Invalides, or the modern Paris of La Défense.

Philippe Trétiack explains how Paris was built, conjuring up its color and music and revealing the city lies beneath, telling the story of its buildings, small and grand.
