I'm American, and yeah we have New York City and I ❤ NYC..but Paris... *Paris* Is the Glamour and Culinary Capitol of the World. Such History..,Blood from those who fought against Tyranny, against Fascism, Parisienne who created the Statue of Liberty and helped send reinforcements to help America win our own fight against Tyranny, blood, sweat, and tears from those who fought and defended their beloved city still deep down between the cobblestones. No Place Compares to its Beauty and no place ever could. It is a Qonder and a Treasure to Behold. To Paris from a Southern American with Love, Wonder, and Admiration ❤ (we aren't all stupid Trump-loving assholes down here in the American South) Thank you for posting such beautiful photos of days gone by, but never forgotten.

As I viewed these lovely photos I could not help but hear Puccini's beloved opera, La Boheme, going in my mind. It was composed and set in Paris at this time during the 'Belle Epoque' period of Impressionism. It was a very creative period in European arts and culture.

[@gaetanomontante5161]

Thank you for the time and efforts to bring this composition to us. I am an old man already, and I have lived in several parts of the world. Paris has always been the place that brings smiles out of me. But to see colorized photos of "la belle epoque" really fill me with joy and renews my love for a truly eternal city.

[@BrightStyle]

Thank you so much for your comment!

[@libertyvilleguy2903]

Stunning architecture, everywhere. Amazing the thought and effort that went in to all the design and execution. Truly the high water mark of mankind’s cities.

[@thomasmulhall4873]

Not mankind, at least not the humans living in 1900. They had horse and buggies and no power tools. Tell me why a city of 600,000 people built infrastructure for millions. Tell me why 5'7" humans build buildings with 20' doors. Arc du Triumph is a huge electromagnet! Notre Dame is a power generator! Those canals help the flow of water thru the battery structures. Those who built all of that are gone. Humans of 1800s inherited and repurposed those buildings.

[@Poisson4147]

@@thomasmulhall4873 O. M. G. read some REAL history. Personal transport had as much to do with heavy construction as an F-150 has to do with a space probe. And builders ABSOLUTELY DID have heavy-duty equipment like cranes, lifts, pulleys, etc. They maybe didn't have electric motors but they did have *steam* power, and before that they used horses. FFS even the ancient Greeks used cranes to build large structures. And big doors are COMMON on churches, even modern ones. The idea is that a church is God's house (if you believe that) and the huge doors and windows are intended to contrast his greatness with humans' tininess. People back then weren't cavemen. Sure they didn't have computers and modern science but they _did_ understand engineering principles. Builders knew how to instruct workers in carrying out plans. All of this is WELL-documented, even if it isn't on YT or tiktok. How do you think modern restorers got plans for rebuilding Notre Dame's roof after the fire? Seriously "I'm not familiar with the tech" =/= "it must have been done by Hogwarts grads".

[@MrDaiseymay]

Parisian structures looked more ornate and decorative than Rome. The photos have Incredible clarity for that age.

[@BrightStyle]

Thank you for your interesting comment

[@davefaulkner6302]

Actually the photos of that age have a much higher resolution than your HD television, for example, because they were taken on very large negatives (4"x5" or 8"x10") often on glass. If scanned today, they would take up gigabytes of memory per image due to their size and high resolution.

[@thomasmulhall4873]

All built at the same time by the same civilisation. Humans with horse and buggy transportation and zero power tools don't drag 200 tons of precision cut limestone across half of Europe and then construct them with .030" tolerances.

Paris est aujourd’hui une ville violente et insalubre. Et ce n'est pas prêt de s’arranger. Quelle honte, quelle tristesse. 😥 Merci pour ces magnifiques images.

[@vauvertalain1397]

Ça donne le cafard...

[@melissacourchesne2121]

Aujourd'hui, Paris plus insalubre et violente? On nous montre pas des photos du Paris de 1900 dans les bas quartiers où des familles nombreuses s'entassaient dans des taudis. Et il y avait aussi des gangs de rue. La protection policière n'était certainement pas celle d'aujourd'hui, plus organisée...Il ne faut pas toujours glorifier le passé. Cette période de temps avait ses bons côtés comme ses inconvénients...

[@heliedecastanet1882]

@@melissacourchesne2121 Vous avez tout à fait raison. Mon arrière-grand-père et mon grand-père ont connu Paris en 1900, 1920, 1930, etc… Mon grand-père me disait à quel point Belleville et Ménilmontant étaient crasseux et insalubres. Les bâtiments étaient noirs de saleté et de pollution. Il me parlait aussi des bidonvilles qui ceinturaient Paris derrière "les fortifs". Les gens d'aujourd'hui s'imaginent toujours un Paris de carte postale.

Beautifully done, and the heart of the city still looks much like this. I keep thinking of my grandmother (1889-1990) who went through here many times during this period. But I also wonder how many of those young men made it to 1919. Maybe everyone was lucky not to know what was coming at them in 1914.

Children born in the early 1900s would go on to see WWII, and most likely die an early death. To think that we, as viewers of these photos, know the future that is in store for most of them. It saddens me. I’m glad they had all those beautiful places in Paris, to walk around, have picnics, hold hands, fly kites, sail boats and enjoy something to eat. I’m glad.
