EDITORS COMMENTS
Crue de Printemps" or the "Spring Flood" on the River Seine, as depicted in this evocative photograph from the May 1919 issue of "La Vie Parisienne," captures the raw power and beauty of nature's rebirth. The image presents a breathtaking scene of the river in full spate, its waters surging over the banks, submerging the streets and buildings of Paris. The waves crash against the stone quays, their white foam crests illuminated by the soft glow of the setting sun. A solitary female figure, dressed in a flowing, diaphanous gown, stands on the edge of the water, gazing out at the turbulent scene before her. Her ethereal presence adds an air of symbolism to the image, as if she represents the spirit of the spring, welcoming the renewal and rejuvenation that the flood brings. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world, and the transformative power of the seasons. The photograph was taken in the 1910s, a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, following the end of World War I. The image offers a moment of respite from the chaos and destruction of the recent past, inviting the viewer to contemplate the cyclical nature of life and the promise of new beginnings. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the beauty and power of nature, and the enduring allure of the City of Light. This image is part of the extensive collection of historical photographs held by Mary Evans Picture Library, and is a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of Paris and the 1910s. It offers a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in history, and invites us to reflect on the enduring power of nature and the human spirit.
