A few days with my family in my hometown, Epinal .. Epinal is the city where I was born. The city of my childhood .. Épinal is a commune in northeastern France .
Tomorrow I go back home , Paris ..
Épinal is best known for the "Images d'Épinal"
– which is now a common expression in French language – the popular
prints created by a local company, the Imagerie d'Épinal, formerly known
as the Imagerie Pellerin. These stencil-colored woodcuts of military
subjects, Napoleonic history, storybook characters and other folk themes
were widely distributed throughout the 19th century. The company still
exists today, and still uses its hand-operated presses to produce the
antique images.
