EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling Place du Marché (Market Square) in Bastia, France with this print from the early 1910s. The view down on the square is a snapshot of daily life in Corsica, with locals going about their business against the backdrop of Eglise St-Jean Baptiste. The charming French architecture and cobblestone streets transport you to a bygone era, where quaint cafes and restaurants lined the square, offering a taste of authentic Corsican cuisine. The church stands tall and proud, its spire reaching towards the sky as a symbol of faith and community. As you gaze at this panoramic view, you can almost hear the sounds of vendors hawking their wares and children playing in the streets. The hustle and bustle of market day is evident in every corner of the square, making it a vibrant hub of activity for both locals and visitors alike. Grenville Collins has captured not just a moment in time, but an entire atmosphere that evokes nostalgia for simpler days gone by. This print is more than just an image – it's a window into history that allows us to experience Bastia as it once was.
