EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the view of Bordeaux, a historic city in southwestern France, as it appeared in the early days of the First World War. In 1914, with the threat of invasion looming, the French government relocated from Paris to Bordeaux, seeking safety and a more strategic location. The image showcases two iconic landmarks of the city: Place de la Comédie and Rue 30 Juillet. Place de la Comédie, located in the heart of Bordeaux, is a bustling square named after the Grand Théâtre, a beautiful 18th-century building that dominates the scene. The square is filled with people and traffic, creating a lively atmosphere. Rue 30 Juillet, a major thoroughfare, can be seen leading away from the square, lined with grand buildings and trees. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of Bordeaux during a pivotal moment in history. The city's monumental architecture, vibrant streets, and the presence of people going about their daily lives, all add to the historical significance of the image. The photograph is a testament to Bordeaux's resilience and its role as a refuge for the French government during the tumultuous times of the First World War.
