EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph of The Paris Gate in Lille, France, captured between approximately 1890 and 1900. The Paris Gate, also known as Porte de Paris, is a historical landmark that once served as one of the main entrances to the old city of Lille. This picturesque image showcases the gate in all its 19th-century glory, adorned with intricate stone carvings and vibrant colors. The gate's name is a nod to its proximity to the old city's Paris Quarter. The photograph, which is part of the rich collection of historical images available at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a coloured photochrom print. This technique, popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, involved the use of multiple color filters to create detailed and nuanced color images from photographs. The result is a nostalgic and captivating representation of the past. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost hear the bustling sounds of the old city's marketplaces and feel the cool breeze that once swept through the cobblestone streets. The Paris Gate stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Lille, France, and serves as a reminder of the beauty and charm of a bygone era.
