René Robert, 84, a Swiss photographer renowned as a chronicle of the art of flamenco, suffered a fall on his evening walk around 9 o’clock on January 19 in the Place de la République area.

As he lay on the pavement, dozens of people just walked by.

At six the next morning, someone called the emergency services, but it was too late. He was pronounced dead on the spot.

C’est la vie de Paris.
