Courtyard Week 8: 22 Rue De Picardie

By Eyepreferparis88 @eyepreferparis

COURTYARD WK. 8-3-1

Last summer I received a photo assignment from France Today Magazine to photograph some shop and gallery owners in the Marais. Galerie Glenat was on the list and when I went to photograph the manager, I peered into an open door leading to a most enchanting courtyard filled with white and pink hydrangea bushes and asked if it was okay to walk through.
This was one of the more unusual courtyards I’ve encountered because it is a shared courtyard of many buildings that extend the whole block and the entrances are mainly from the shops and galleries on the block, not one central door.
