to Paris in autumn
─ travels ─
the golden season
autumn 2011
NL - Paris
In 2011 I made a trip to Paris, once more following a route of Paul Benjaminse. Maybe the most beautiful section of the route was the Thiérache region, with the characteristic fortified churches. Also I came across a church in Jeantes, in which the Dutch artist Charles Eyck did both the murals and the leadlights. In Paris I went to the Musée d’Orsay.
I was lucky with the weather – never a lot of rain or wind. There was stunning beauty of both low autumn sunlight and the so called boring grey days. Zaz provided a lot of warmth anyways.

I have made a picture-video of this trip, with Dutch voice-over.
