EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time during the Great Flood of Paris in 1910. Passers-by can be seen on a bridge, gazing at the rising waters of the Seine River below. In the background, a hospital's roof is covered with snow, creating a stark contrast against the floodwaters.
The scene is both eerie and beautiful, showcasing the power of nature as it wreaks havoc on one of Europe's most iconic cities. The photography adds to the historical significance of this image, transporting viewers back to a time when Paris was facing an unprecedented natural disaster.
Despite the chaos unfolding around them, the passers-by appear calm and contemplative as they take in the surreal sight before them. It serves as a reminder of human resilience in the face of adversity, as well as our interconnectedness with nature.
This photograph is not just a stunning visual representation of a specific moment in history; it also serves as a testament to Paris' enduring spirit and ability to weather any storm that comes its way. It is truly a timeless piece that captures both tragedy and beauty in equal measure.
