EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting view of the cobblestoned Route de Bergues in the picturesque French town of Socx, circa 1910s. Nestled in the Nord region of France, this quaint street scene transports us to a bygone era. The Route de Bergues, a charming road lined with trees and quaint houses, invites us to explore the town's rich history and culture. The cobblestones underfoot, worn smooth by the passage of time and the wheels of horse-drawn carts, bear witness to the many stories that have unfolded on this street. The trees, with their full canopies, provide a welcome shade on sunny days, while their vibrant autumn colors add a burst of warmth during the colder months. The houses, with their distinctive French architecture, exude a sense of timelessness and charm. Their red-tiled roofs and ornate details speak to the craftsmanship and artistry of the builders who constructed them. The windows, with their shutters closed, offer a glimpse into the private lives of the townspeople who once called these homes their own. Socx, a town steeped in history, is located in the Nord department of France, and has been an important crossroads for trade and commerce since medieval times. Its strategic location along the Scheldt River made it a valuable prize for various European powers throughout history. Today, Socx is a popular destination for tourists seeking a taste of authentic French culture and a chance to step back in time. This image, from The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to imagine the stories that unfolded on the cobblestones of the Route de Bergues in Socx, France, over a century ago.
