EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white postcard captures the vibrant atmosphere of Place d'Aligre and Marche Lenoir in Paris, circa 1900. The photo, taken by a French photographer from the 20th century, showcases the architectural beauty of this bustling square located in the 12th arrondissement. Designed by architect Samson Nicolas Francois Lenoir, who lived between 1730-1810, this district exudes charm and elegance. The cobbled streets add to the timeless appeal of this scene as Parisians go about their daily lives. A prominent feature is an urinal known as vespasienne that stands proudly on one side of the square. This architectural detail harks back to the Belle Époque era when such structures were common in public spaces. The market at Marche Lenoir comes alive with vendors selling fresh produce and goods to eager customers. The street scene is filled with both men and women going about their business against a backdrop of stunning facades. This photograph offers a glimpse into early 20th-century Parisian life, capturing not only its architecture but also its energy and vibrancy. Preserved in a private collection, it serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time while still retaining their unique character.
