Images of France
Become a patron of my channel on Patreon and get access to blog posts and perks, purchase my prints and products to keep it running by clicking links below. To use my photos for commercial or non-commercial use please contact me.
📷 Join me as I explore the landscape of France through short visual documentaries about historical sites, culture and nature. The videos deliver concise information by letting the images speak for themselves. Focus is given to South France. For optimal viewing ensure that you are set on HD/4K.
Content outside of France will be shared in the spirit of wanderlust, world heritage and to foster cultural connections.
I am an archaeologist and a photographer. This channel was born out of passion to solo-document heritage, including sites related to my research about gnostic revival in Occitanie during the Middle Ages, the interplay between pre-Christian traditions, Roman presence in Gaul and the establishment of Christianity.
