Une rue à Manille; Les Terres Du Pacifique,
EDITORS COMMENTS
translated to "A Street in Manila; The Lands of the Pacific," is a captivating photograph taken in 1914. The image was published in "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree," a renowned French geography magazine of the time. The photograph showcases a bustling street scene in Manila, the capital city of the Philippines, situated along the Pasig River. The photograph transports us back to the early 1900s, where horse-drawn vehicles dominate the road transport. A horse-drawn carriage, adorned with intricate details, is parked on the side of the road, while another horse-drawn vehicle is making its way through the crowd of people. The horse, with its powerful stature, stands still, seemingly unfazed by the commotion around it. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of Manila during the 20th century. People of various backgrounds and ethnicities are seen going about their day, some carrying heavy loads on their backs, while others are engaged in conversation or simply watching the world go by. The waterfront in the background is dotted with boats and ships, adding to the vibrant and dynamic atmosphere of the scene. The photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural diversity of Manila and the Pacific region. The image captures the essence of a time long past, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the fascinating history that lies within the pages of "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree." Despite the unknown creator of this photograph, its historical significance and ability to transport us to a different time and place make it a valuable addition to any collection of historical images. The photograph is a reminder of the power of visual storytelling and the enduring allure of the past.
