EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured in 1907, transports us back in time to the scenic Montmartre district of Paris, with its iconic Basilica of the Sacred Heart, or Sacré-Cœur, as its centerpiece. The image showcases a horse-drawn bus idling at the base of the Montmartre funiculaire, a funicular railway that has been in operation since 1896. The funiculaire serves as a vital link between the lower city and the hilltop basilica, providing easy access for both sightseers and worshippers. The horse bus, a common mode of transportation during the early 20th century, adds an authentic touch to the scene, reminding us of a bygone era. The Montmartre district, renowned for its artistic heritage and bohemian spirit, was a popular destination for tourists and artists alike. The basilica, with its distinctive white façade and red domes, looms majestically in the background, casting a captivating allure over the scene. The photograph, taken from a vantage point at the foot of the funiculaire, offers a unique perspective, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of the horse bus and the Montmartre funiculaire, as well as the breathtaking view of the city below. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Paris, a city that continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a valuable historical record of Paris in the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring charm and allure of the City of Light.
