EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history - the visit of an English delegation to Paris during the construction of the Metro, circa 1905. Taken by a talented French photographer, this print showcases the meeting between these two nations amidst the bustling building site underground. The image portrays a formal gathering at Place Saint-Michel, where members of both delegations are seen standing in front of a caisson. The delegates are dressed impeccably, with their top hats adding an air of sophistication to the scene. This photograph not only documents this important event but also provides us with a glimpse into early 20th-century fashion and photography techniques. With its historical significance and artistic composition, this photo is part of a private collection that has been made available through eArchives Charmet. As it is out of copyright, it serves as an invaluable resource for researchers and enthusiasts alike who wish to explore the entente cordiale between France and England during this era. Whether you're interested in subway construction or diplomatic relations, this image offers insights into both subjects. It stands as a testament to human achievements in engineering while capturing the essence of cultural exchange between nations.
