EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the Colonial Exhibition in Marseille, France, held in 1906. The image showcases the impressive Rotunda Mas de Santo Estello, also known as the Pavilion of the Provence Initiative Committee. The architectural masterpiece, designed in the Rundbau or circular style, served as a symbol of regional pride and progress during this significant event. The Colonial Exhibition was an occasion for France to showcase its colonial possessions and promote economic and cultural exchange between the metropole and its colonies. The exhibition attracted a large number of visitors from across Europe, making it an important moment in the history of Marseille and the Provence region. The Rotunda Mas de Santo Estello, with its elegant curves and intricate details, stands out among the various pavilions and structures that populate the exhibition grounds. The pavilion's design reflects the modernist architectural trends of the early 20th century and highlights the innovative spirit of the Provence Initiative Committee. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and cultural exchange that took place during the Colonial Exhibition in Marseille. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of historical events and the architectural wonders they leave behind.
