Paris is photo-ready this week

Today we"re featuring an image of the Jardin des Tuileries and the Louvre to highlight the Paris Photo art fair happening through Sunday at the historic Grand Palais. Paris Photo is the world"s largest art fair dedicated to photography. Since 1997, the mission of the fair has been "to promote and nurture photographic creation and the galleries, publishers, and artists at its source." Starting today around 200 exhibitors, leading galleries, and specialty publishers, along with Parisian cultural institutions, will give visitors a unique look at both historical and contemporary photographic works of art.
