Paris Gallery: Jardins du Luxembourg - Vth Arrondissement - Norman Barth -
I first saw this place in the mid-1970s when I travelled to Paris as a teenager - my first time
in the city on my own. It was a quiet day in August, and I walked into the garden in the middle of
the heat of the day. There were few other people about. My camera had Kodak's Plux X Pan black and white
film in it. I still have that negative to this very day.
Paris Gallery: Fontaines Richard Wallace - Norman Barth -
The fontaines Richard Wallace are to be found throughout the city of Paris.
Not surprisingly, they were originally proposed by Sir Richard Wallace, an Englishman
in 1871, shortly after the uprising known as the Commune.
Paris Gallery: Mairie du VIem - VIth Arrondissement - Norman Barth -
Bordering the Place Saint Sulpice, and between the streets rue Bonaparte, and rue Madame,
is the Mairie of the 6th arrondissement.
Paris Gallery: Fontaine du Québec - VIth Arrondissement - Norman Barth -
On the corner of rue de Renne and rue Bonaparte - just across the street from Café Les Deux Magots
and Café de Flore
