EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Liberation of Alsace and Lorraine Celebrated in Paris on November 17, 1918) is a poignant and historic photograph from the first world war era. The image captures the jubilant crowd in Paris as the liberated regions of Alsace and Lorraine, previously under German control, make their triumphant return to France. The photograph, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924, shows the moment the crowd surges forward as the head of the procession, which had come from the Etoile, approaches Place de la Concorde. The barricades have given way, and the square is overrun by the exuberant crowd. The scene is a testament to the patriotic fervor and collective relief that swept through France as the country celebrated the end of the war and the return of its long-lost territories. The photograph captures the concept of victory and the triumph of the French people over adversity. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the historical significance of the First World War and the impact it had on the people of France. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or those focused on the First World War, the Western Front, or the events of the 1910s. The creator of the photograph is unknown, adding to its mystery and intrigue. The image is a testament to the enduring power of historical moments and the role they play in shaping our collective memory. This photograph is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of France, the First World War, or the human spirit.
