EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Lyons, France in 1895. The unknown creator beautifully captures a general view of the cityscape with the magnificent Cathedrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Lyon standing proudly in the foreground. This grand cathedral is a testament to Lyon's rich Christian heritage. The photo also showcases the convergence of two mighty rivers, Rhone and Saone, which have played a significant role in shaping Lyon's geography and history. As we gaze upon this panoramic view, we are transported to a time when bridges connected people across these flowing waters. Published by George Newnes Ltd in London, this image is part of their remarkable collection titled "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs: From London Bridge to Charing Cross via Yokohama and Chicago". It offers us a glimpse into different corners of our world during that era. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance. It reminds us of Lyon's religious devotion, architectural marvels like cathedrals, and natural wonders such as rivers that continue to shape cities even today. Let this photograph be an invitation for exploration - both within ourselves and beyond geographical boundaries - as we uncover stories hidden within each frame captured by unknown creators like this one from Heritage Images.
