A SUMPTUOUS COVERED PASSAGE REMAINS

GALERIE VIVIENNE IS SO DISCREET THAT PASSERS-BY OFTEN MISS IT

4, rue des Petits-Champs

Though banality has invaded here too, some shops express the former spirit:  

Lucien Legrand

Founded 1880; Japanese ownership since 2013, but the wines the same.

Wolff and Descourtis

The next page says more.

Catherine André
N° 26 

Alexis Mabille

 N° 34

Yukii Tori
 N° 38-40

At the end, a bookstore founded in 1826

Librairie Jousseaume 

N° 45

François Jousseaume, the founder's descendant

It evokes a spirit that we miss.
