"A historical moment captured during the Paris lockdown of 2020.       Morning coffee. The terrace of a private apartment on Avenue de Breteuil / VII arrondissement of Paris — suddenly transformed into a prison alley. Heels as a symbol of social life. A copy of Le Monde — the day’s predictions of liberation. Behind her: the golden dome of Les Invalides. And yet she sits, like someone waiting for a world that might never return. Or maybe just pausing in the quiet — nowhere to go, but still wearing heels. Every person on Earth in 2020 had their own Confinement. This was one of them."
