Louis Vuitton in Paris – an old but very stylish renovation
6 July, 2021

I was fortunate enough to visit Paris in early 2005 when Louis Vuitton was doing renovations to their flagship store on the Champs-Élysées and managed to take the following two photographs.

In 2004, Louis Vuitton spent $1,5 million to erect the large scale Louis Vuitton suitcases on the outside of the building and another one to cover the George V side of the building.  The scaffolding effectively became a giant advertisement.

After 18 years in the IT industry, Doreen decided to surround herself on a daily basis by photography that she loves which led to the establishment of The Cow Artworks in 2004. In March 2006 she opened the gallery in Parkhurst and has thrived in this beautiful space. Her passion for travel affords her the opportunity to take photographs, particularly candid shots of street scenes, graffiti and architecture.
