EDITORS COMMENTS
Vieux Jeu - A Gentleman's Mesmerising Encounter with the Transformed Parasol on the 1922 Promenade This photograph, taken in 1922, captures the moment of intrigue and distraction on the bustling promenade as a dapper gentleman is mesmerised by an extraordinary sight. The lady, elegantly dressed and holding a parasol, walks leisurely along the promenade, unaware of the transformation her accessory has undergone. Suddenly, the parasol, with its delicate lace and vibrant colours, morphs into an alluring roulette wheel, beckoning the gentleman with its irresistible charm. The historical context of this image transports us back to an era of elegance and intrigue, where the thrill of gambling was a popular pastime for the sophisticated elite. The gentleman, with a quizzical expression on his face, hesitates for a moment before approaching the lady, perhaps to inquire about the mysterious transformation. The parasol-turned-roulette-wheel spins, the numbers coming to a halt, and the gentleman's gaze is locked onto the outcome. The vibrant colours and intricate details of this image take us on a journey back in time, painting a vivid picture of the historical significance of gambling in the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the allure and fascination that the game of roulette held for the people of that era, and the unexpected encounters that could unfold on the bustling promenades of the past.
