EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of the Festival for 14 July on the iconic Champs Elysees in Paris. The date of this annual event commemorates the storming of the Bastille fortress in 1789, marking the beginning of the French Revolution. The Champs Elysees, a grand avenue renowned for its beautiful tree-lined boulevard, becomes a vibrant and lively place filled with people from all walks of life. In this particular moment, the focus is on the classical music concert taking place in the square, where a large crowd has gathered to enjoy the melodic tunes. Above the scene, a group of people can be seen descending from the sky, adding an element of surprise and excitement. These individuals are participating in the traditional French tradition of ballooning, which was a popular mode of transportation during the 1790s. The Temple de l'Amour, a historic monument located at the end of the Champs Elysees, serves as a beautiful backdrop to the festivities. The peaceful atmosphere is further emphasized by the absence of any commercial activities, allowing the focus to remain on the celebration of city, peace, and unity. The photograph also highlights the rich history of France's aviation industry, as the Royal Aeronautical Society's image from the National Aerospace Library showcases the flight element of the festival. The descending parachutists, along with the hot air balloons, represent the spirit of adventure and innovation that has long been associated with the country's aeronautical heritage.
