Paris, Line by Line

Accessibly priced and updated to include 21st-century facts, a celebration of 1960s Paris is comprised of evocative architectural drawings by the late creator of the best-selling New York, Line by Line, in a volume that offers unique perspectives of the City of Light's scenes, landmarks and everyday events.

Born in Berlin as Werner Kruse, Robinson adopted his one-name moniker after Robinson Crusoe awoke in him his passion to draw. He drew more than 250,000 illustrations during his lifetime and is the author of the bestselling New York, Line by Line, as well as Paris, Line by Line. Robinson died in 1994 at the age of 83. Today, with the existence of such graphics programs as Freehand and Illustrator, Robinson is considered a pioneer, his technique an example and inspiration for many illustrators.
