REVISITING OLGA AND FOLKE IN PARIS 1909


Olga and Folke in Paris 1909.
(I have rescanned these images so they should be much better than the previous ones. )

In my book MY DARLING OLGA, you can follow Folke's daily letters from Sweden to Olga who was in Paris arranging for the wedding. There are a lot of surprising details.


The photos above are no doubt taken at the flat of a friend of the family (Madame Berthelot). This was a very small and intimate marriage ceremony nothing like the grand weddings people arrange these days.
I have used this image for scarves, posters, cards and other products. Have a look

Olga and Folke married in a very small Catholic Church Saint Honoré d'Eylau at place Victor Hugo. Pictures below:
