A journey through the golden artistic era of Paris’s Montparnasse

Paris was the centre of the art world during the first half of the 20th century. And the neighbourhood of Montparnasse was the heart of this rich artistic life.

Up and coming writers, painters, sculptors and early photographers came from around the world to enjoy the creative atmosphere and cheap rents Montparnasse offered. The situation changed after the Second World War, but traces of this artistic energy remain today. Arts on the Air took a walking tour of the neighbourhood on the trace of those who turned photography into a respected art form.
