EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in Parisian history during the electricians' strike of 1907. The image, taken in La Place Clichy, depicts a group of Parisians gathered around candlelit tables, enjoying an evening of camaraderie and respite amidst the darkness of the city. The year was 1907, and the 20th century was in full swing, but the electricians' strike had left the streets of Paris without power for several days. The scene is set against the backdrop of the bustling Place Clichy, a popular nightlife destination known for its vibrant energy and eclectic mix of people. However, in this moment, the usual hustle and bustle of the square has given way to a more subdued atmosphere, as the Parisians make the best of the situation. The warm glow of the candles illuminates their faces, casting long shadows on the cobblestone streets. The tables are laden with glasses of absinthe, the green liquor a favorite among the Parisian crowd. The bitter taste of the drink, once notorious for its psychoactive effects, adds to the surreal atmosphere of the scene. The Parisians raise their glasses in a toast to the spirit of solidarity and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a moment in history frozen in time. It offers a glimpse into the social fabric of Paris during a time of struggle, and the creative ways in which people found joy and connection in the midst of hardship. The image invites us to reflect on the power of community and the enduring human desire for connection, even in the darkest of times.
