About this ebook
Talk about exploration and discovery this modern day flâneur traveling throughout France in the early 1990's will showcase a rather unique, one-of-a-kind photographic collection revealed in published format for the very first time.
This is a photo documentary showcasing a collection of 25 uniquely different illuminated pedestrian crossing signs (IPCS), also referred to as piétons, discovered throughout a number of cities, towns and banlieues all across France from 1991 through the summer of 1993.
All photographs of the figures showing the exact street intersection location represent a double exposure technique in order to capture both the red and green figure on the same color film frame.
