EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Time around the world: Paris" takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a fascinating glimpse into how time was perceived and measured during that era. The image showcases a bustling street scene in Paris, with its iconic landmarks serving as a backdrop. The lithograph is part of a set of trade cards that aimed to educate people about time across different countries and cities worldwide.

Amidst the vibrant cityscape, we see couples strolling hand in hand, children playing joyfully, and locals going about their daily lives. The French culture is beautifully captured through the attire and demeanor of its inhabitants.
