EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a tragic moment in history - the Metro accident of 1903 in France. The image shows a train, constructed of varnished wood, engulfed in flames near Belleville station. Passengers can be seen frantically trying to escape to safety, but tragically many mistakenly head towards danger.
In this devastating incident, 84 individuals lost their lives due to asphyxiation from the smoke and fire. The sheer panic and chaos depicted in this photograph is palpable, serving as a stark reminder of the dangers that come with early forms of transportation.
The black and white tones add an eerie quality to the scene, emphasizing the somber nature of this historical event. It serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly tragedy can strike when least expected.
As we look back on this dark chapter in transport history, we are reminded of the importance of safety measures and protocols that have been put in place since then to prevent such disasters from occurring again. This print stands as a testament to those who lost their lives that day and serves as a solemn tribute to their memory.
