Rue Du Faubourg Saint-Honoré

The Faubourg Saint-Honoré, the most famous Parisian street, has symbolised the French art of living since the 18th century. In the heart of the capital, it is home to superb private gardens, heirs to the orchards and vegetable gardens of yesteryear.

Designers, patrons and famous manufacturers chose it as a sign of their know-how and prestige; the Republic, by entrusting it with its head of state and one of its main ministries, and foreign countries, by setting up their embassies there, made it a Parisian institution.

This book offers a fresh look at this world-famous street.
