The Majestic Beauty Of Old Libraries Captured By Franck Bohbot

Published 10 years ago

New York-based French photographer Franck Bohbot has his camera lenses focused on the most beautiful library interiors in the world for quite some time. For his ongoing photo series “House of Books,” Bohbot has traveled from Boston to Rome and from Rome to Paris to capture the architectural wonders of ancient libraries, where hundreds of thousands of books dwell stacked on the seemingly never-ending shelves, creating perfect symmetry.

Bohbot is already a well-known photographer, who’s especially fascinated by historic architecture. Besides the grand libraries, the photographer has already created photo series of historical theaters, museums, train stations, and more.
