EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting Garden of the Petit Palais during the Exposition Universelle in Paris, 1900. The renowned French photographer beautifully immortalizes this momentous event that celebrated the accomplishments of the past century while paving the way for future advancements. The Exposition Universelle was a grand world's fair that attracted over 50 million visitors from all corners of the globe. It showcased an array of groundbreaking inventions, architectural marvels, and artistic masterpieces. Art Nouveau, with its graceful curves and intricate designs, dominated the fair's aesthetic. Amongst these extraordinary displays were iconic creations such as escalators, Ferris wheels, Russian Nesting Dolls, Campbell's Soup cans, Diesel engines, talking films - a precursor to modern sound recording - and even the majestic Eiffel Tower itself. Originally designed by Charles Girault for this monumental exhibition in 1900, today Petit Palais houses the City of Paris Museum of Fine Arts (musee des beaux-arts de la ville de Paris). This historic photograph transports us back to a time when innovation and creativity flourished against a backdrop of breathtaking beauty.
