EDITORS COMMENTS
A captivating snapshot of Parisian life during a historic flood, this photograph depicts a Parisian skillfully punting a wooden door down the flooded Rue Massillon on January 30, 1910. The iconic Notre Dame Cathedral stands proudly in the background, located on the Ile de la Cité, as the water level reaches an unprecedented height. The man, dressed in typical French attire, expertly poles the makeshift punt, navigating through the turbulent waters. The old door, likely repurposed for this unique mode of transportation, adds an element of resourcefulness and ingenuity to the scene. The photograph captures the resilience and adaptability of the Parisian people during a time of great adversity, making it a fascinating glimpse into the city's history. This image is a testament to the enduring spirit of Paris and its inhabitants, as they navigate the challenges of a natural disaster with grace and determination.
