ROOFTOPS OF PARIS SKETCHBOOK (EDITIONS/ PACIFIQUE) (HB)

This volume of quirky but charming artwork provides a view of Paris as seen from its rooftop and it the result of the creative efforts of French illustrator Fabrice Moireau and Belgian writer Carl Norac. Moireau has undertaken a close study of Paris, surveying it at rooftop level with an entomologist's eye for detail. In this book, he captures in watercolour the city's lesser-known nooks and crannies, alongside the famous landmarks, offering unusual angles and new ways of seeing the iconic city. The text goes beyond prosaic description to capture some of the wild and poetic imaginings inspired by these rooftops.
