EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking view of Montmartre in Paris, France, circa 1908. The iconic Basilica of the Sacred Heart (Sacré-Cœur Basilica) dominates the skyline, its white stone walls gleaming in the sunlight. The Roman-Byzantine Revival basilica, a major landmark of the Montmartre district and a significant example of Catholic architecture, was constructed between 1875 and 1914 as a penance for the French defeat in the Franco-Prussian War and the subsequent siege of Paris. The cobblestone streets of La Rue de la Barre wind their way up the hillside, inviting visitors to explore the artistic and bohemian history of Montmartre. This area, renowned for its vibrant cultural scene, has long attracted artists, writers, and musicians, including the famous Moulin Rouge and the Place du Tertre, home to numerous artists selling their works. The photograph's warm, sepia tones add depth and character to the scene, transporting viewers to a bygone era. The view of Montmartre in Paris, with its historic basilica and charming streets, continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
