Paris, France
1961

A vintage black and white photograph depicting a street scene with a flower kiosk and a classic street lamp in the foreground. Bare trees frame the view leading to an iconic arch in the background. A person tends to the flowers at the kiosk, while pedestrians and a cyclist are visible further away, suggesting a peaceful urban setting. The photo has a white border, giving it an aged appearance.
