EDITORS COMMENTS
Amid the bustling streets of Paris, a tradition as old as time itself continues uninterrupted. In this evocative image from 1905, a Parisian oyster seller proudly displays his wares, offering a wide choice of oysters at varying prices. The seller, with a knowing smile, invites passersby to sample the succulent morsels, their briny freshness a testament to the seller's expertise and dedication. The oyster stall, a fixture in Parisian street life for generations, is a testament to the rich history of the city's culinary traditions. The seller's trade, steeped in history, is a reminder of Paris's long-standing connection to the sea and its bountiful offerings. The absence of the letter 'R' in the month signifies an auspicious time for oyster consumption, as the belief goes that oysters are best enjoyed when the month's name shares the same number of letters as the number of months since the new year. This superstition, deeply ingrained in French culture, adds an extra layer of allure to the already popular seafood delicacy. The seller's stall, with its piles of freshly shucked oysters, is a feast for the senses. The salty, briny aroma wafts through the air, mingling with the sounds of the bustling street and the chatter of customers. The seller's practiced hands move deftly, expertly arranging the oysters on ice, ready for the next customer to indulge in the culinary delight that is a Parisian oyster. This photograph, taken over a century ago, transports us back in time to a simpler era, where the simple pleasure of a freshly shucked oyster could be savored on the streets of Paris. The enduring appeal of the oyster stall, with its rich history and timeless allure, continues to draw in customers, both local and from afar, who seek a taste of Parisian tradition and culinary excellence.
