Improbable Walks, Season 3, Episode 5: Usually we focus on lesser-known streets, but today, we're walking along LES CHAMPS ELYSEES. From an inclusive coffeeshop to the Guerlain perfume legacy... and most particularly, my favourite steampunk historical fact: in the early 1900s, inventor Alberto Santos-Dumont used to park his dirigible (yes, a flying machine) outside his apartment on the Champs.
Here are my photos of the Arc de Triomphe, last September during the Christo art wrap--which was really wonderful--and more recently this spring. And an archival photo of the historic walk down the Champs by Winston Churchill & General Charles de Gaulle, on November 11, 1944.
Next, here is one of the marvellous dirigibles invented & piloted by Alberto Santos-Dumont. There is a Vanity Fair cartoon (c 1901) & a photo of the great Brazilian inventor c. 1901, plus a photo of the inventor WITH A DIRIGIBLE parked outside his Elysian Fields' apartment (taken sometime between 1903-1908). And I took a photo of the plaque you can see today, on his old building.
Finally, here's an archival photo of the Guerlain boutique (interior); the Patisserie Gloppe, painted by Jean Béraud, 1889, to show you an old Champs tearoom; and a Champs traffic cop in about 1960. Enjoy promenading!

I really enjoyed the part of the post where you walked the famous Champs‑Élysées and described the old photos and places along it like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, it made me feel like I was there with you. When I was writing my thesis last year I needed help with data analysis dissertation and I stayed up late in a cafe sketching ideas just like you taking photos of the avenue. It reminded me how places and studies both take patience and curiosity to explore their stories.
