There prints are some that I have collected, and want to share with you. I think they are from the late 1800's. All of the images were made in the winter months, since there are no leaves on the trees.

There are no automobiles or power lines in any of these images

Some of the people in the photos have wooden shoes on. The street views have open drainage. I am open to your comments and thoughts about where, and when, they could have been taken.

A collector friend, living in Paris, thinks the images could be from the 1880 to 1900 era, and mentioned the Loire Valley.

If you are interested in carbon pigment digital copies, please send me a email. Put the word "French photographs" in the subject line
