Remarkable Untouched 1942 Apartment Discovered In Paris

It was owned by Madame de Florian — a socialite and an actress — who fled to the South of France during the second world war, leaving everything behind. She never came back to Paris but kept on paying her rent until the day she died when she was 91.

    1. Would have expected a lot more dust over that time. Is there an point of dusting weekly when this is all the accumulates over decades? :)

    2. I wonder if they did some careful dusting and vacuuming before they took the photos.

    3. There might not be a lot of dust without human presence...isn't it a lot of dead skin?
