EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Centenaire Monument in Nice, a historic landmark of the French Riviera, dating back to the late 19th century. The monument, built in 1890 to commemorate the centenary of the French Revolution, stands proudly against the backdrop of the azure Mediterranean Sea and the lush greenery of the surrounding hills. The picture, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the monument in all its colored glory. The photochrom process, a popular method for producing colored photographs during this era, adds a nostalgic and picturesque touch to the image. The intricate details of the monument's architecture are beautifully rendered, with the intricate carvings and ornate columns standing out in vivid hues. The Centenaire Monument, located at the eastern end of the Promenade des Anglais, has long been a symbol of Nice's rich history and cultural heritage. The monument's central obelisk, topped by a golden flame, represents the revolutionary spirit and the enduring legacy of the French Revolution. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Riviera was a popular destination for European aristocrats and artists seeking inspiration and relaxation. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia, inviting us to reflect on the history and beauty of this iconic monument and the vibrant city of Nice.
