Walking back to my hotel from the Metro in Paris at dusk, I’d passed this restaurant many times but hadn’t captured it quite right yet. Then a vintage Citroën pulled up next to me on the cobblestones. It was a race to get my lens cap off and adjust for the fading light. Everything felt like I’d been recruited into a vintage spy television show.

When I saw the image on my camera, I knew I’d done justice to the moment. I finished my journey home completely stunned at what I’d just witnessed.

This vintage feeling print is perfect for anyone more obsessed with the then than the now.
