Les Halles on a Monday morning on the corner of Rue Berger with Rue Pierre Lescot. Outside Baltard pavilion number 12 by the section devoted to the wholesale cheese market. Billboards advertise businesses related to cheese. On the ground level a billboard advertises refrigerating appliances - dairy counters, cold cabinets and storage. On the upper level are billboards advertising cheese. The Laiterie de Grieges famous for its Bleu de Bresse has illustrations. Its Bibress and Bleu d'Azur are cylinders of cheese wrapped in paper and its Coulommiers au Chateau de Vallieres and France Bresse are contained in round balsa wood cheese boxes. An unillustrated advertisement announces that "Les camemberts Augedor et Precheur sont les seuls vendus veritablement affines" - two camemberts that alone can claim to be properly ripened when sold. Just in view another billboard advertises Paul Dischamp - Fromages d'Auvergne St Nectaire-Cantal. Photographer Harold Chapman recalls that people - ordinary market-goers - could go in the pavilion and shop depending on the time of day when the retail shops were open inside the pavilion... "The shops were all different and were built on the inside of the walls going round the pavilion so you would just walk round on the pavement having a look at the different cheeses." Chapman also recalls that "the photograph could not be taken when trading was going on - you would not see anything, what was written on the signs, because of the total chaos in the street. It was taken on a day when everything was shut up and no trading was taking place." Quartier des Halles, 1er arrondissement, Right Bank, Paris, France, circa 1960s.
