This captivating work captures the heart of Paris in a black and white nighttime perspective that evokes a sense of mystery and melancholy. The scene takes place on a dark railway track, where the lines converge towards the majestic Eiffel Tower, illuminated in the distance. The striking contrast between the darkness of the tracks and the bright light of the iconic tower creates a powerful visual dynamic, immediately drawing the viewer's eye into the distance. Urban structures frame the scene, reinforcing the sense of perspective and depth. Buildings rise up on either side, their shadowy silhouettes accentuating the drama of the composition. Street lamps lined up along the station platforms add points of discreet light, revealing at times the details of the surrounding architecture and the wet cobblestones, evidence of the frequent Parisian downpours. The artist's mastery of light and shadow is undeniable. Each element is carefully balanced to create an atmosphere that is both serene and poignant. The sharpness of the rails contrasts with the blurred softness of the background, accentuating the impression of distance and infinity. This image is an ode to the timeless beauty of Paris and the silent eroticism of its nights. It evokes a meditative stroll through the city, where past and present meet in harmonious silence. It is a call to contemplation and an invitation to lose oneself in the meanders of the City of Light, illuminated by the magnificence of its eternal tower.

Julie Peiffer, born in 1967 in Nancy, is a French artist-photographer. She lives and works between Paris and Nancy. Self-taught, she develops an artistic work of author, and is interested in the evolutions of our worlds among which the invisibility of the woman, the urban space and the ecology, in a humanist vision which is at the same time documentary and very personal.
Despite herself, Julie Peiffer had a childhood on the fringes of society across France until settling, for a time, near Montpellier.
She arrives in Paris at the age of 18 and begins to work in particular in the magazine press. As a writer in Paris, she travels to New York and London.
If it's not her who then presses the shutter button of the cameras, she is closest to the photographers with whom she collaborates, and validates each shot. A photographer offers him a Nikon FM2. For years, while she raises her two boys, she looks at the camera without daring to take it.
2015. Charlie Hebdo attacks. She grabs the device with a sense of urgency. You have to photograph the city where human life is disappearing. Especially at night. Since then, always on the lookout for new ways to communicate, she has moved from the paper press to the digital press, and very quickly understands the interest of Instagram, which she uses intelligently to share her photos. This is how she was spotted in 2015 by a London gallery. She begins to exhibit in 2017, then will be represented by Paul Stewart Gallery and has collectors in France, Canada, Dubai and Australia.
His work is the subject of collective and personal exhibitions, as well as publications.
Her gaze questions feminine identity. This intimate stranger. Like a quest. Always passionate about dance, her photos summon both the body and the language of the feminine. His work is bursting with light, a crazy vitality and a melancholy of the depths, the foundation of all human existence, are mixed with it.
