Snowy, Sleepy Paris

February 16th, 2010 · Add a comment · Blog posts by Lia, Urban archipelagos

Environmental Graffiti has a wonderfully curated collection of photos of Paris in the snow. Spring has come early to us on the West Coast, so this seems particularly fanciful and magical to me right now. It’s worth clicking over to see the whole collection.

Or, if you’re the kind of person who hits the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button on Google, why not try searching “Paris” and “snow” on Flickr?

Snowy Paris photos always remind me of the photographer Lee Miller. I can’t find any of her beautiful Paris shots online; everything about her seems to be about her “muse” status, not her own formidable talents as a photographer. (At least Foto8 has a good profile of this book of her work. ) But even in the photo accompanying her wikipedia profile, you can tell she’s a badass.
