In 300 unpublished photographs in superb black and white, Gérard Rondeau tells the story of Reims Cathedral. This monument of Gothic art here becomes the alcove where stories are told: stories of saints, stories of beasts, stories of fabulous creatures that haunt this eight hundred year old place. The magnificent text by Rodin which accompanies it offers in counterpoint a poetic and philosophical reflection on this majestic work, architecture and art. A journey through time and history, imbued with spirituality and magic, with beauty.
