EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the jubilant atmosphere of the Victory Parade in Paris on November 11, 1919, at Place de la Concorde in the 8th arrondissement. The end of the First World War was cause for immense celebration throughout Europe, and this image encapsulates the collective relief and patriotism felt by the French people. The square is filled with a vibrant and diverse crowd, including men and women, children, and soldiers, all dressed in their finest attire. Some wave French flags, while others hold banners and standards bearing the tricolour. The horsemen and infantry regiments, proudly riding or marching through the square, add to the festive and triumphant mood. The Place de la Concorde, a historic square located in the heart of Paris, serves as the perfect backdrop for this celebration. The iconic obelisk, originally erected in Egypt and later moved to Paris in the late 19th century, stands tall and resolute in the center of the square. This photograph, taken by an unknown artist, is now part of the collection of the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, which holds an extensive archive of historical images and artifacts. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the collective joy and relief felt by the French people as they marked the end of the conflict.
