EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heroic moment from the past. In the late 19th century, in Paris' beautiful Park of the Humps Chaumont, a man found himself in a perilous situation on the bridge. Seizing an opportunity to exploit its structure, he became trapped within the intricate walls of this architectural marvel. However, fate had other plans for him that day. A courageous firefighter came to his rescue, risking his own safety to save a life. With skill and determination, he managed to free the man from his precarious position without causing any harm. The engraving was featured in "Le Petit Journal" on November 13th, 1898 - an era when news traveled through printed press rather than digital platforms. This historical artifact is now part of the Selva Collection and serves as a testament to both human bravery and journalistic documentation. The photograph itself is colored with vibrant hues that bring life to this extraordinary scene from early 19th-century France. It showcases not only the heroism of firefighters but also highlights various types of bridges - pedestrian bridges made of wood or stone and even suspension bridges. As we admire this remarkable image captured by Leonard de Selva, let us remember those who risk their lives every day to protect others and appreciate how far we have come since then in terms of technology and safety measures.
