EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1895 with this print of France, Centre, Indre-et-Loire (37), Tours. The image captures the entrance to the Rue Nationale, where the Hotel Papion is being demolished and the new town hall is under construction.
In this snapshot of history, we see a bustling street scene filled with bicycles, carts, and pedestrians going about their daily lives. The architecture of the buildings reflects the French style of the late 19th century, adding a sense of charm and nostalgia to the scene.
The presence of railway tracks and a tram hint at the importance of public transport in this growing city. The construction site serves as a reminder of progress and development taking place in Tours during this era.
As you gaze upon this photograph, you can almost hear the sounds of horses trotting by and people chatting on street corners. It offers a glimpse into what life was like over a century ago in one corner of France.
This print is not just an image; it's a window into another time that allows us to appreciate how far we've come while also preserving memories from our past. Let yourself be transported back to 1895 through this fascinating piece captured by Lux-in-Fine.
