This image is that of destruction, published at the time of reconstruction ...
Deyrolle, the famous Parisian taxidermist shop-office-more than curiosities burned in February 2008. During the fire, affecting the first floor, some furniture and animals is passed, reserving firefighters strange surprises ...
The revamped store reopened its doors to the public. You can again see all sorts of beasts legs small (butterflies, stick insects, beetles etc. ..) and large (the fawn to the giraffe), and reptiles, and some shellfish. In short, anything edible, but enough to feed the curiosity and the jointers to the eye.
From the fire, the photographer Laurent Bochet fired a series of both funny and apocalyptic, where animals half-eaten by fire still seem to pose with firefighters in their middle-class home and yet devastated.
images are named as the heat reached the heart of the inferno: 1000 °. They are exposed at this time in their models among Deyrolle cerrains which have become stars of advertising. A book
beautiful but expensive (120th) is published for the occasion from Assouline.
Visit: 46, rue du Bac, 75007 Paris.
