La joie de Paris - Reunited German Artillery Cannons, Place de la Concorde, 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant photograph by Louis Remy Sabattier, capturing the jubilant atmosphere in Paris during the aftermath of the Armistice of Compiègne on November 11, 1918. The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts a crowd of Parisians, including men, women, and children, gathered around several German artillery cannons that have been collected and lined up on the Place de l'Opéra and the Boulevards. The cannons, which had previously been deployed against the French forces during World War I, now stand as symbols of peace and victory. The background is filled with people celebrating, some waving flags or forming joyful processions, while others simply watch the scene unfold. The image encapsulates the relief and elation felt by the French people as they welcomed the end of the devastating conflict, marking a significant moment in European history. The photograph is a powerful testament to the human spirit and the capacity for reconciliation and unity in the face of adversity.
