EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the United States district in Lyon, a visionary architectural project conceived by Tony Garnier between 1919 and 1934. Thanks to the support of Edouard Herriot, mayor of Lyon at the time, Garnier was able to bring his socialist utopian vision to life in the form of a miniature city within the larger urban landscape.
Inspired by both European and American garden designs of the time, Garnier's district is a testament to his innovative approach to urban planning. The intricate details and thoughtful layout of the buildings showcase his dedication to creating a harmonious living environment for residents.
The renovation of this historic district from 1993 to 1998 breathed new life into Garnier's creation, preserving its unique character for future generations to enjoy. This photograph taken in 1993 beautifully captures the essence of Garnier's design, showcasing his mastery as an architect.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and complexity of Garnier's work. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can shape our cities and communities, leaving behind a lasting legacy that continues to inspire us today.
