EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the bustling Boulevard Lafayette in Calais, France, circa 1910. The image transports us to a bygone era, filled with the sights and sounds of daily life in this historic European city. The broad avenue, lined with trees and adorned with ornate street lamps, is a hive of activity. Horse-drawn carriages and automobiles navigate the cobblestone streets, weaving in and out of pedestrians. Men in suits and women in elegant hats stroll along the sidewalks, engaged in conversation or browsing the wares of street vendors. Children play in the street, their laughter echoing off the buildings as they dodge the traffic. A horse-drawn tram makes its way down the boulevard, its conductor calling out to passengers. The scene is one of energy and vitality, a testament to the spirit of Calais and its people in the early 20th century. The photograph offers a glimpse into the social fabric of this vibrant French city, where the rhythm of daily life played out against the backdrop of historic architecture and the bustling streets. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that continues to thrive in Calais and the wider region.
