EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in the heart of Caen, Normandy, Northern France in 1905, captures the historic beauty and rich heritage of this enchanting town. The image showcases two prominent structures that have stood the test of time: the Church of Saint-Etienne (old Abbaye des Hommes) and the nearby grammar school (Lycee). The Church of Saint-Etienne, with its impressive Gothic architecture and soaring spire, has been a significant landmark in Caen since the 11th century. Originally a monastery, it was later transformed into a church and is now a popular tourist attraction. The intricate stone carvings and stained glass windows tell the stories of the past, while the peaceful courtyard invites visitors to reflect and unwind. Adjacent to the church stands the imposing grammar school, which was built in the late 19th century. The architectural style of the building reflects the grandeur and elegance of the time, with its symmetrical facade and tall, arched windows. The school, which was once a prestigious institution, has played a vital role in the education of generations of students. The statue of King Louis XIV, dressed as a Roman emperor, adds an intriguing touch to the scene. This magnificent figure, which stands proudly in front of the church, symbolizes the connection between the past and the present, as well as the enduring influence of French history and culture. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Caen, a town that continues to captivate visitors with its timeless charm and beauty.
