Les Allées Brocante Antiquité
This series of photographs is about a special place for lovers of antique items or a serie of still life objects at Les Allées Brocante Antiquité, Toulouse.
While exploring the city of Toulouse, you can unexpectedly stumble upon the Sunday antique market, named Les Allées Brocante Antiquité. The place captivates with its spirit and life. It is full of smiling people and sellers who are welcoming watchers to hear about objects standing in their posts. Each item is very interesting and gives rise to a curiosity to learn about the history of each item. It seems a perfect place to capture portraits of still life. Captured, so you can take a look and see how inspiring can be a Sunday in Toulouse antique market.
After some research, it turns out that this is a syndicate of professional antique dealers, under which experts assess the authenticity and quality of the objects, in order to maintain to hold a high-quality market and maintain the trust of buyers. The association was founded in 1970 and is still in existence today.
And what is beautiful about it? The thought is that all objects have their own history. It reminds us that life is cyclical, that human life has a beginning and an end but the objects stay in the same house or in the same place until someone takes them. It evokes feelings of nostalgia, but also the joy that objects that have served someone for a long time, that have made life easier, that have been used in the family home, in joyful celebrations and dramatic events, have acquired a certain spirit and can then continue to pass from hand to hand, continuing to create history.
