EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and explore the haunting beauty of the Catacombs during the Victorian period, as captured in this vintage photograph from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online. The Catacombs, a labyrinthine network of underground tombs and ossuaries located in Paris, France, have long held a fascination for visitors and locals alike. This image, taken during the Victorian era, showcases the eerie and otherworldly atmosphere that once enveloped these subterranean crypts. The photograph, which appears to be a lantern slide, captures a group of visitors making their way through the dimly lit passages, their lanterns casting flickering shadows on the ancient walls. The corpse-filled niches and ornate decorations that adorn the walls are illuminated by the lanterns, creating a stark contrast between life and death. The Victorian period, which spanned from 1837 to 1901, was a time of great social and cultural change. The fascination with the macabre and the supernatural was a popular pastime for many Victorians, and visits to the Catacombs were a common attraction for the curious and the brave. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the veil between the living and the dead seemed thinner, and the mysteries of the afterlife held a greater allure. The Edwardian era, which followed the Victorian period, saw a shift towards more rational and scientific thinking, and the popularity of visits to the Catacombs waned. Today, the Catacombs remain a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from around the world who are drawn to the history, the mystery, and the haunting beauty of this unique and fascinating place. This photograph serves as a reminder of the past, and a testament to the enduring allure of the unknown.
