EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1910 with this stunning print of Lyon, France. The Church of Saint John stands proudly on the edge of the Saone River, its intricate architecture a testament to the city's rich history. In the foreground, a steamboat named "The Sphinx" glides gracefully along the water, adding a touch of old-world charm to the scene.
As you gaze at this snapshot from over a century ago, you can almost hear the sound of church bells ringing and feel the gentle breeze coming off the river. The bustling city of Lyon is captured in all its glory, with buildings lining the waterfront and people going about their daily lives.
The mythical creature adorning "The Sphinx" adds an element of fantasy to this otherwise realistic portrayal of early 20th-century France. It serves as a reminder that even in times gone by, imagination and creativity played important roles in shaping our world.
This print is not just a piece of art; it's a portal to another era. It allows us to glimpse into life in Lyon during a time when steamboats were cutting-edge technology and churches dominated city skylines. Let yourself be transported back in time with this image from Lux-in-Fine.
