本书的出版标志着罗伯特·弗兰克在20世纪50年代初在巴黎拍摄的大量照片首次被汇集成册。弗兰克于1924年离开瑞士，1951年的法国之行只是他在1947年定居纽约后第二次回到欧洲，在这次到访中拍摄的一些照片已经成为摄影史上的标志性作品。

书中收录的80张照片由弗兰克和编辑乌特·艾斯基尔森（Ute Eskildsen）挑选，表明弗兰克在“新世界”的经历磨练了他对欧洲城市的眼光。他将城市的街道视为人类活动的舞台，并特别关注卖花的人。他的作品明显参考了阿杰特（Atget）的作品，让人想起阿杰特那种游荡于街头的习惯。

Paris is the first time that the significant body of photographs which Robert Frank made in Paris in the early 1950's have been brought together in a single book. His visit to Paris in 1951 was his second return to Europe after he had settled in New York City in 1947 and some of the images he made during that visit have become iconic in the history of the medium. The 80 photographs selected by Robert Frank and Ute Eskildsen suggest that Frank's experience of the new world had sharpened his eye for European urbanism. He saw the city's streets as a stage for human activity and focused particularly on the flower sellers. His work clearly references Atget and invokes the tradition of the flaneur.
