On Friday, January the 17th, we paid a visit to the "Musée de la photographie" which is the biggest European museum dedicated to photography. A guided visit and an activity were organised for the students.
During the guided tour, several pictures were studied : some focusing on the history of photography technics such as daguerreotypes, some focusing on the structure of the picture and some focusing on the reading and understanding of the pictures.
