Je recommande chaudement à toute personne intéressée à la photographie et à l'humanité. Des photos très touchantes avec une mise en scène bien réfléchie. Un "must" absolu pour tout visiteur de Clervaux, la ville de l'image.

Je connaissais l’exposition mais je l’ai offerte à une amie en visite guidée. Je recommande fortement. Le guide était très gentil et connaissait bien son sujet. Cela mettait en perspective le travail de l’auteur qu’on n’aurait pu appréhender sans les explications.
