EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the daring exploits of Auguste Dalay, a twenty-year-old workman from Rouen, France, in the year 1901. The photograph depicts Auguste taking a leap of faith as he dives from the impressive Rouen Transporter Bridge. The bridge, an engineering marvel of its time, was a vital transportation link, connecting the right bank of the Seine River with the left bank. Auguste's daring act, though seemingly reckless, was likely driven by a love for adventure and the thrill of the unknown. Swimming in the Seine River was a popular pastime among the locals, and the bridge provided an irresistible platform for the brave-hearted to showcase their skills. The photograph, taken in the early days of the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the spirit of adventure and the audacity of the human spirit. Auguste's fearless dive from the Rouen Transporter Bridge stands as a testament to the courage and determination of the people of Rouen during that era. The image, preserved in this print, is a valuable historical artifact that transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a moment of bravery and daring that has stood the test of time. Auguste Dalay's dive from the bridge remains an enduring symbol of the human spirit and the lengths people will go to experience the thrill of adventure.
