Rephotographing Atget

Neat photos of Paris 'then' and 'now' by Eugène Atget and Christopher Rauschenberg.

Between 1888 and 1927, Eugène Atget photographed thousands of Paris scenes, cataloguing the city as it grew into the modern era. Christopher Rauschenberg spent a year in the 1990s revisiting many of Atget’s locations to see what had changed. In Rauschenberg’s new book, Paris Changing, each site is mapped so you can follow along in the photographers’ footsteps.
