Its a shame you missed one photograph in particular: from 1838 by Louis Daguerre of a street scene in Paris, its believed to be the first ever photograph with people visible in it (a shoe shine boy and his customer, who are only visible because they stood still long enough to be caught by the super long exposure of the cameras of the time.) Worth at least an honourable mention.

[@PixelatedExistence]

Stop pretending some images like the first one at 0:10 were enhanced!..This image was clear, BEFORE you sneakily blurred it to make it appear you then enhanced it! Shame on you for lying! Anyone interested can find the original picture on NBC News website under ' Iconic Notre Dame Cathedral through history'.

Ce magnifique voyage dans le passé de la vie parisienne me rend profondément nostalgique et me donne envie de pleurer à la vue de tous ces braves gens qui nous fixent d'un regard bienveillant et parfois curieux, mais qui ne sont plus de ce monde. 😔

[@anitabowie5974]

No litter anywhere, the ladies and gents wore hats, no badly behaved children, what a pleasure to live in that age if one was well off.

[@Diana-yn2ho]

Generally speaking, people were more civilized back then.

[@joanl.7543]

It seems like even those of modest means made the most of what they had. People had way fewer clothes, but they dressed as nicely as they could.

Thanks for sharing!!! When I see old photos like these, as I view them, I try to feel like I am right there. I try to envision the sights and sounds. I am a history fanatic and could look at images like these all day!!! Loved it! 😊

[@Kathy-cw9vt]

My grandmother and GF are probably in some of these photos. Wonderful.

[@brendadrew834]

Great job, thanks! With all the black and white photos of that great iconic era, we have a tendency to erroneously think there was no color! As a former retired NYC fashion illustrator who worked only in color, this was of great interest to me, having studied the history of fashion in fashion art school in Manhattan! It was also the era of my late beloved grandmothers, my late beloved mother born in 1908! The photo of the woman in white surrounded by little girls looked like a scene from the Academy award winning film, "Gigi" filmed in beautiful Paris which took place during the Belle Epoch era, the turn of the last century from the late 1800s, the Victorian era and then the early 1900s, the Edwardian era! Have always loved those straw boater hats worn by men into the 1930s! French fashion designer Coco Chanel who originally designed hats also wore a smaller version of them and introduced the horizontal blue and white mariner's jerseys for women in the early 1900s, making fashion way more comfortable for women. She was revolutionary!♥♥

[@andreapandypetrapan]

Dear Bright Style, The shots of high bourgeois Parisian women's fashion from 1900 to 1905 are incredibly fascinating. Especially the fashionable figure at 4:00, the studio model at 5:51, the Hippodrome Auteuil at 6:18, the Great Exhibition at 6:47, and 10:37 in Bois de Boulogne. Thanks for this! Love andrea

That’s a shame. Last time I was in Paris was 1989. I though it was a beautiful place. I had a baguette stolen from my rucksack. I forgave that. But I hadn’t seen La Haine. I heard that St Denis ? Is one of the most violent places in Europe.

Now that Paris has become unbearable to live in, the cheapest square meter of real estate costs twice as much as a good monthly salary: Close to 10,000 €. No progress in sight. Except towards a Lagos or Johannesburg atmosphere.

[@splodge5714]

Some lovely photos much still recognisable today. The Paris cafe scene hasn't changed much. The biggest difference is the automobile replacing the horse. I still enjoy visiting Paris and walking the streets, particularly along the Seine and around Monmartre.

Merci pour ce partage. La colorisation rend les photos plus vivantes, c'est du beau travail. Une manière de faire revivre ce Paris qui a aujourd'hui presque complètement disparu. 12:10 Palais du Luxembourg

[@whukriede]

To me it seems impressive how much indeed has been preserved in Paris instead of renewed. As one little but striking example see the pond in the Jardin du Luxembourg where you still find those same little sailboats as there have been more than a hundred years ago. The Parisiens exhibit an a highly developed sense for beauty and tradition.

[@BrightStyle]

[@Hope_Boat]

Born in Paris in 1967. Most of the places depicted in those pictures didn't change at all. In fact the architecture of Paris was very well preserved despite the efforts of terrible mayors lately to "modernize" the city of lights. Of course the Gare Montparnasse was demolished and replaced by the eponymous tower but it's the exception, not the rule. The garden of Luxembourg is pretty much the same, even the chairs and the kiosks remain. The horses are long gone and the fashion is different, but most streets are recognizable. The Bon Marché is still there. The Pont Alexandre III was restored lately. Children still play with model sails boats in the Luxembourg garden. The main changes are the cars and more recently there are entire areas where migrants live in tents.

[@puremalt50yo13]

Bravo pour ce magnifique et intéressant travail. Il me semble toutefois y avoir une incohérence de date dans la photo de l'arc de triomphe du Carousel. En 1869, le palais des Tuileries existait encore, on ne pouvait donc pas voir la perspective du jardin et des Champs Elysées. Le palais a été incendié en 1871 pendant la Commune et les ruines démolies en 1882. La photo est forcément postérieure.

[@isabellejoyaux1674]

Et la photo d'un jeune couple avec l'homme en uniforme , date plutôt des années 1920, 1925 d'après la robe et la coiffure de la jeune femme.

Bravo pour votre travail sur ces images. Plus que des photos, ce sont de véritables témoignages, des instantanés éternels d'une vie révolue. Toutes ces personnes insouciantes ne savent pas qu'elles seront prises, quelques années plus tard, dans un cataclysme effroyable qui bouleversera l'Europe, fera des millions de morts et détruira la vie de dizaines de millions de familles... Ces photos montrent une époque où Paris était encore une ville populaire et je pense que si un Parisien de ce temps-là voyait Paris aujourd'hui, il aurait surtout honte de ce que cette ville est devenue, une cité du tiers-monde où les rats prospèrent en toute tranquillité. Cent fois merci pour cette si touchante vidéo. PS) Petit point : la musique aurait pu être plus appropriée à ce diaporama si elle avait, par exemple, celle d'Eric Satie.

[@frederic834]

Love the pictures. Even though there were great advances made since then, and back then millions were sick and hungry, the people living in those times were generally happier than today even with a easier and more plentiful lifestyle we enjoy. We really have not come as far as we should have. War crime hate division overt squalid sexuality morals even aimed at children, no, we are quickly moving backwards not forward. The world is on fire, Rome is burning. We have learned nothing.
