"When Doisneau began to photograph the suburbs of Gentilly and Montrouge, they were still the tough but spirited working-class communities celebrated in the poetic-realist films of Julien Duvivier and Marcel Carné. But Doisneau caught them just as they were about to change and expand beyond recognition, making this book a valuable document that looks unsentimentally yet affectionately at a popular idea of the French working class”

(The Photobook, Martin Parr & Gerry Badger)

 

Hardcover under dust jacket, 240 x 190 mm. First original edition, 1949. Gravure printing. Text in french.
