In 1980 Raymond Depardon fulfils an order for the Sunday Times Magazine, but the reportage will never be published. The pictures will wait in the photographer's boxes until the exhibition Un moment si doux (Such a sweet moment) at the Grand Palais (14th November 2013 - 10th February 2014), where the audience discovers a sample of the Glasgow series and goes into raptures about it. Depardon grasps the light of Scotland as never before and sublimes the end of a working world. Glasgow's cloudy skies and soaked ground give an extraordinary beauty to the wanderings of working people, hanging around in front of the shops, walking towards the factories' walls and even playing about ruined houses. William Boyd, who is of Scottish descent and was educated in Glasgow, writes the preface of the book, which is bilingual (English-French). Here we publish the complete reportage: 72 colour photographs. The pictures will appear without captions, and only a short bilingual text by Depardon will introduce the reportage, behind Boyd's foreword.

Né en 1942, Raymond Depardon est photographe et réalisateur. Il est considéré comme l'un des maîtres du film documentaire et son œuvre photographique s'est imposée en France et à l'étranger. Une grande exposition de ses photographies couleurs s'est tenue au Grand Palais à Paris du 14 novembre 2013 au 10 février 2014. Ses derniers livres parus au Seuil sont Berlin (2014) et Adieu Saigon (2015).
William Boyd, célèbre auteur britannique, a fait ses études à Glasgow dans les années 1970. Touché par ce reportage qui témoigne de l'ère Thatcher, il nous rappelle cependant l'histoire d'une ville puissante et riche qui a su prendre, au début du XXIe siècle, un nouveau virage qui a transformé son image de cité ouvrière en ville innovante.
