The Bridges of Paris
Over the years the Seine has drawn and inspired many painters, and more recently photographers. Treading the uneven cobblestones on its banks, they have captured its atmosphere through the changing light, with the passing of the hours and seasons. Writers and poets have evoked the Seine in song. All have contributed to the reputation of Paris as a city of mystery and charm, a magnet for the expression of a vast array of artistic sensibilities.
