A few years ago, Bettina Rheims shoot some intriguing models in two rooms of Hotel de la Tour d’Auvergne. The really french and friendly atmosphere of the hotel, the rich materials and the ambiance cosy and a little bit out of the trends at this period inspired her. The photographies are part of the famous book “Chambre Close”. Now the hotel has been completly renovated by Aldric Duval, the owner, but the spirit is still the same.
