EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time at the Lyon-Perrache gas factory in Lyon, France, back in 1898. The industrial landscape is dominated by a towering gazometer, with a daring man perched on its roof, seemingly unfazed by the height and danger below. The wagon labeled "C Auclair" adds to the authenticity and historical significance of this scene.
The black-and-white image exudes an air of mystery and adventure as we are transported back to the bustling streets of late 19th-century Lyon. The photographer's skillful composition captures not only the man on the gazometer but also provides a glimpse into daily life at the gas factory.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can't help but marvel at the bravery and ingenuity of those who worked in such industrial settings. The intricate details captured in this photograph serve as a reminder of how far technology and society have come since that time.
This print is not just a visual representation of Lyon's past; it is a testament to human resilience and innovation that continues to inspire us today.
