Bistrots parisiens

Raymond Depardon
Four bistros in the 10th arrondissement, Paris

At the counter and around the tables, Raymond Depardon photographed the small gestures that give a Parisian bistro its rhythm. These pictures, rediscovered in his archive, were exhibited in four neighbourhood bistros.

Photographs by Raymond Depardon. Prints by Dupon, Paris.
