  1. 📷 Le #Jardin Albert Kahn était un de mes pèlerinages annuels avant que la conjonction COVID + travaux chamboule mes habitudes. Ses jardins #japonais, #anglais et forêt #vosgienne, etc…autant d’ambiances apaisantes réunies dans cet espace bien restauré à #Boulogne. Retrouvailles agréables aujourd’hui, et je vous conseille d’y aller dans ~10 jours pour les plus belles couleurs d’#automne. Le #musée vaut également le coup d’oeil. #albertkahn #garden #paris #nature #forest #japanese #photography

  6. @Sheril This photo taken in #Galway #Ireland c. 1913 and yes, in colour, not retouched by two #French women photographers #Mespoulet & #Mignon working for philanthropist, #AlbertKahn for his #ArchivesOfThePlanet shows an #Irish boy in skirt to fool the #Fairies into not taking him away (because back then #girls weren't worth as much and it was okay if they were taken by fairies)--so there's another bit of #gender #stereotyping...copyright #AlbertKahnMuseum, #Paris 😍
