Description
A rear street view of one of the most charming traboules of the historic French city of Lyon. These fascinating stairwells, tunnels and corridors are built into the very fabric of Vieux Lyon and have been there since the 4th Century. Used by the silk merchants of the time to move between buildings and streets without ever venturing outside, the cover of the traboules protected their precious materials from the harsh elements. Now, one of the most intriguing aspects of the city, you cannot visit without taking a step back in time and getting lost in the ancient warren of secret passageways. I hand blended textures with my original vintage style photograph to compliment the old world feel of this classic Lyonnais street scene.
