Step back in time to the 1900s, a decade filled with elegance and charm. Picture yourself at the grand Garden Party held at the Elysee in Paris in 1902, where Emile Loubet, a prominent French statesman and president of the French Republic under the Third Republic, graced the event with his presence. The atmosphere was alive with sophistication as guests mingled amidst beautiful floral arrangements. Meanwhile, Frederic Mistral, a renowned French writer known for his Provencal expression, enjoyed precious moments with friends and his beloved wife in 1905. Their joyous faces captured forever in a snapshot that reflects their deep connection and love for one another. Traveling across continents became increasingly popular during this era. A captivating chromolithography from the late 19th century showcases Western tourists exploring Lucknow's vibrant streets in India. This glimpse into history reveals how travel has always been an enriching experience that bridges cultures. In bustling New York City, Broadway Avenue witnessed its fair share of traffic jams even back then. An enchanting chromolithograph from private collection unveils carriages and pedestrians navigating through this iconic street during peak hours – a reminder that congestion is not exclusive to modern times. Luxury tourism also thrived during this period. Imagine being aboard a lavish cruise ship sailing through Yosemite Valley Lake in California. Passengers indulged themselves by escaping into books within opulent reading rooms while marveling at breathtaking views of nature's wonders. Advertisements played an essential role even then; Novissima magazine promoted arts and letters around 1920 through eye-catching posters that captivated readers' attention. Children found joy playing games such as colin-aillard (blind man's buff), jumping rope or chasing balloons amidst beautifully manicured public gardens – scenes immortalized through engravings dating back to 1900. Fashion took center stage too. Models proudly showcased Paul Poiret's exquisite hat, "Lewis, " in a photograph from 1904.
