EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, taken from the south, offers a breathtaking view of the French defenses during the Siege of Paris in 1870. The historic image transports us back in time, providing a unique perspective on the extensive fortifications that surrounded the city during this pivotal moment in French history. The Siege of Paris, which lasted from September 1870 to January 1871, was a significant military engagement between the French and the Prussian armies. The Prussians, led by General von Moltke, surrounded the city, cutting off supplies and isolating the French forces and civilians within. In response, the French government and military commanders, including Adolphe Thiers and General Louis Jules Trochu, fortified the city's defenses to hold out against the siege. The image reveals several outlying forts and fortifications, including the redan-style Fort de Vincennes and the redoubts of Montjuic and Mont Valérien. These strategic positions were designed to protect the city's approaches and provide a strong defensive line. The aerial view also reveals the vast extent of the city's fortifications, which stretched for miles around Paris. The intricate network of walls, bastions, and moats can be seen, offering a testament to the determination and resourcefulness of the French defenders. As we gaze upon this historical image, we are reminded of the courage and resilience of the people of Paris during the Siege. Despite the hardships they faced, they held out against the Prussians for over four months, refusing to surrender until the terms of the armistice were favorable. This aerial view offers a unique and captivating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the strategic and historical significance of the Siege of Paris.
