EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment four French schoolboys finish their breakfast and prepare to set off for school in the early 1900s. The scene takes place in a cozy, sunlit kitchen, where the boys have been fortified for the day ahead with a steaming cup of coffee. The coffee, however, is not an ordinary brew. The boys' cups are filled with a unique blend, expertly crafted by Arlatte et Cie of Cambrai. Founded in the late 19th century, Arlatte et Cie was a renowned coffee roaster and chicory supplier based in the picturesque town of Cambrai, in northern France. Chicory, a root vegetable, was added to coffee to enhance its flavor and create a richer, fuller taste during times when high-quality coffee beans were scarce or expensive. The addition of chicory also made coffee more affordable for the average French family. The boys in the photograph, dressed in their school uniforms and clutching their satchels, share a sense of camaraderie as they finish their breakfast. Their faces reflect a mix of anticipation and apprehension, as they look forward to the day's lessons and the challenges that lie ahead. The warm, inviting atmosphere of the kitchen, filled with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the comforting presence of their families, provides them with a sense of security and strength. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the daily lives of French schoolboys during the early 1900s, and the role that simple pleasures like a hearty breakfast and a warm cup of coffee played in their lives. The enduring legacy of Arlatte et Cie and the continued popularity of chicory coffee in France serve as a reminder of the rich cultural traditions that have shaped the country's culinary and social history.
