Paris, France, 1989 Photograph by James L. Stanfield A man sits in
Paris&#039s Tuileries Garden flanked by colorful model sailboats, which
are rented out and sailed in the park&#039s picturesque fountains.

Located in downtown Paris along the banks of the Seine, the gardens are
built on the site of an old quarry where clay for tiles, or tuileries
in French, was once mined.

(Photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "The Great
Revolution," July 1989, National Geographic magazine)    RELATED
