EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Ascenseur" and dating back to 1910, offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Galeries Lafayette department store in Paris. The image showcases one of the store's iconic ascenseurs, or elevators, which were a groundbreaking innovation at the time. The Galeries Lafayette, established in 1895 by the visionary entrepreneur Théophile Boudens, was one of the first large department stores in Europe. Its grand opening marked a significant shift in retail industry, as it brought together various merchandise categories under one roof and introduced the concept of shopping as an enjoyable and social experience. The store's architect, Alphonse Mucha, designed the elegant Art Nouveau façade and interiors, which were adorned with intricate details and natural motifs. The ascenseurs, with their ornate wrought-iron structures and glass enclosures, were a testament to the store's commitment to both functionality and aesthetics. This photograph captures the ascenseur in action, with a group of women and children waiting patiently for their turn to board. The machine's industrial components, such as the pulleys, ropes, and gears, are on full display, revealing the inner workings of this marvel of early 20th-century technology. The Galeries Lafayette's ascenseurs played a crucial role in the store's success, allowing shoppers to easily navigate its multi-level layout and access the vast array of merchandise. Today, the store remains a beloved Parisian institution, continuing to draw visitors from around the world with its unique blend of history, innovation, and shopping experience.
