EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Liberation of Alsace and Lorraine Celebrated in Paris on November 17, 1918) is a poignant photograph from the first world war era. The image captures a significant moment in French history as Raymond Poincare, the President of France, delivers a triumphant speech on the official tribune at Place de la Concorde in Paris. The photograph was taken on November 17, 1918, following the end of the First World War and the liberation of Alsace and Lorraine from German occupation. The tribune is situated between the statues of Rouen and Brest, facing the statues of Lille and Strasbourg, symbolizing the reunification of these regions with France. President Poincare, dressed in formal attire, stands confidently on the tribune, delivering his speech to a large crowd gathered in the square. The atmosphere is celebratory, with the streets filled with people expressing their patriotism and joy at the return of their lands. The military presence is evident, with soldiers standing guard and men in uniforms mingling with the crowd. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the political and emotional significance of the First World War and the impact it had on the people of France. The image, with its stark contrasts, adds to the sense of history and solemnity. The photograph is taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, 1924. The creator of the photograph remains unknown, but its historical importance is undeniable. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of First World War memorabilia or a display of French history. It is a testament to the enduring spirit of the French people and their resilience in the face of adversity. The image is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the war and the importance of unity and patriotism in times of crisis.
