Inhaltsangabe:

Nowhere are dogs more widely pampered by their owners than in Paris, the City of Light. Canines of varying breeds appear, well fed and immaculately groomed, in all aspects of Parisian life, whether they are riding the Metro, sitting in the front seat of a taxi, or relaxing side by side with their maitre at a cafe table. In Les Chiens de Paris, Barnaby Conrad III has collected an irresistible gallery of black-and-white photographs of Parisian pooches. Beginning with Nadar's touching podrait of a boy and his dog taken in 1865, the book goes on to chronicle over a century of human-canine symbiosis. Huge hounds, high-strung miniature purebreds, and jaunty mongrels are captured by Lartigue in the Bois de Bologne, Franck in the Metro, Erwitt in the Boulevard St. Germain, Doisneau at the Louvre, and Cartier-Bresson along the Seine. These timeless images of dog and owner resonate with comedy, poignancy, and joie de vivre.
