Photos extrêmement rares de Paris en couleurs au début des années 1900

Un véritable voyage dans le temps dans un monde dont les seules représentations étaient des photographies en noir et blanc et souvent de mauvaises qualités.

Bien que certaines de ces images pourraient ressembler à des photos modernes et certaines d’entre elles à des peintures, il s’agit de véritables photographies en couleurs, prises au début du 20e siècle, à Paris.

Spectacular Paris Opera House (Palais Garnier)

The excellent novel 'Phantom of the Opera' by Gaston Leroux
and my favourite musical of the same name
(by Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber)
are based upon the stunning Paris Opera House.

The Palais Garnier is a 1,979-seat opera house,
which was built from 1861 to 1875 for the Paris Opera.

It was originally called the Salle des Capucines because of its location
on the Boulevard des Capucines in the 9th arrondissement of Paris,
but soon became known as the Palais Garnier in recognition
of its opulence and its architect, Charles Garnier.

The theatre is also often referred to as the Opéra Garnier,
and historically was known as the Opéra de Paris or simply the Opéra
as it was the primary home of the Paris Opera and its associated Paris Opera Ballet until 1989,
when the Opéra Bastille opened at the Place de la Bastille.

The Paris Opera now mainly uses the Palais Garnier for ballet.

Galeries Lafayette, Paris

Galeries Lafayette is a stunning French department store
located on Boulevard Haussmann in the 9th arrondissement of Paris.
In 2009, Galeries Lafayette recorded earnings of over one billion euro.

It is a part of the company Groupe Galeries Lafayette.

In 1895, Théophile Bader and his cousin Alphonse Kahn
opened a fashion store in a small haberdasher's shop
at the corner of rue La Fayette and the Chaussée d'Antin, in Paris.

In 1896, their company purchased the entire building at n°1 rue La Fayette;
in 1905 they acquired the buildings at n°38, 40 and 42,
boulevard Haussmann and n°15 rue de la Chaussée d'Antin.

Bader commissioned the architect Georges Chedanne
and his pupil Ferdinand Chanut to design the store at the Haussmann location,
where a glass and steel dome and Art Nouveau staircases were finished in 1912.

The Millau Viaduct - The World's Tallest Bridge, France.

(So tall that it reaches above the clouds in the sky!)

http://www.fosterandpartners.com/media/Projects/1158/img1.jpg
http://hotel-lion-or.com/photos/158_1_145623.jpg

[SIZE=3]The Millau Viaduct (French: le Viaduc de Millau) is a cable-stayed bridge
that spans the valley of the River Tarn near Millau in southern France.

Designed by the French structural engineer Michel Virlogeux
and multiple award-winning English architect Norman Foster.

The Millau Viaduct is the world's tallest bridge with one mast's summit
at 343.0 metres (1,125 ft) above the base of the structure.

It is the 12th highest bridge deck in the world,
being 270 metres (890 ft) between the road deck and the ground below.

Millau Viaduct is part of the A75-A71 autoroute axis from Paris to Béziers and Montpellier.

Construction cost was approximately €400 million.

It was formally inaugurated on 14 December 2004,
and opened to traffic on 16 December.

The bridge has been consistently ranked as one
of the great engineering achievements of all time.

The bridge received the 2006 International Association for Bridge
and Structural Engineering Outstanding Structure Award.

The original Statue of Liberty, France.

'Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité!'

The US Statue of Liberty is a replica of the original,
as the original was considered as 'too beautiful' to giveaway to the US.

The copy was also sculpted by a Frenchman and given to the US as a gift from France.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replicas_of_the_Statue_of_Liberty
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Liberty

The French played a major role with their military in helping
with the American Revolutionary Wars.
The French also built the US White House,
and the US Declaration of Independence
was declared and signed in France.

This is the original Statue of Liberty in France.

Mont Saint Michel, Normandy, France
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Saint-Michel

http://www.simplepastimes.com/prod_images_blowup/MontSaintMichelFrance.jpg

Mont Saint-Michel is an island commune in Normandy, France.
It is located approximately one kilometre (0.6 miles) off the country's northwestern coast,
at the mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches.
100 hectares (247 acres) in size, the island has a population of 44 (2009).

http://www.bhmpics.com/walls/mont_saint_michel-other.jpg

The island has held strategic fortifications since ancient times,
and since the eighth century AD has been the seat of the monastery from which it draws its name.
The structural composition of the town exemplifies the feudal society that constructed it:
On top, the abbey and monastery; below this, the great halls; then stores and housing;
and at the bottom, outside the walls, fishermen's and farmers' housing.

One of France's most recognisable landmarks, Mont Saint-Michel and its bay
are part of the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites
and more than 3 million people visit it each year.

I think there is a small mystake in the title of the thread. If a moderator can change it, it should be "Images de France". For the meaning of the sentance there isn't the "la".

[alb0zfinest]

I mean I knew French architecture was good, but this good???
Great thread, and wonderful pictures.

The fairytale Sleeping Beauty castle hotel
Euro-DisneyLand, Paris.

"A truly fairytale castle, boasting soaring spires, ornate turrets,
regal royal-blue rooftops, stained glass windows and tapestries,
the 167-foot structure invokes both the magic and mystery
of fictional palaces like the one seen in Disney's animated classic Sleeping Beauty,
as well as elements from real French castles and historic monuments.

Adding to the enchanted environment, the castle is surrounded
by square trees and is home to a large sleeping dragon
that occasionally awakens, puffs smoke and roars.

A magical place for children and families.

The inspiration for Perrault's famous fairy tale Sleeping Beauty.

The castle is open from February to November.''

La plus ancienne photo de Paris

Nous sommes en 1839 à Paris Boulevard du Temple. Le cliché est anodin et pourtant il s’agit de la plus ancienne photo (un daguerréotype) de Paris. Le cliché semble avoir été pris depuis l’actuelle caserne Vérines, située place de la République. Il s’agit probablement aussi de la première photo d’une personne vivante. A noter que la photo représente une rue particulièrement fréquentée, cependant le temps d’exposition pour les photos de l’époque étant supérieure à 10 minutes, les passants en mouvement n’ont pas eu le temps d’imprégner le film … ils n’apparaissent donc pas sur le cliché. Seul apparaît l’homme en bas à gauche (cf ci dessous), resté immobile le temps de faire cirer ses chaussures.

Voici une sélection des plus anciennes photos de Paris ou l’on découvre les premières photos du Pont Neuf, de Notre Dame et de Montmartre !

The French Dresden. Carpet-bombed and genocided by the Frigging Cowards of the royal air force in June 1944.
Thoroughly rebuilt from scratch, except for a few churches and palaces that were reconstructed as they used to be (the end result looks a lot better than modern Dresden thank goodness).

This can't be Montpellier.
(It rather looks like some place very close to the Italian or Spanish border.)
Montpellier doesn't sit by the sea, and the coastline in the area is low and made of sand.

I hate Montpellier.
I don't know why.
The locals are madly in love with their city.
I don't understand why.

Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers

What’s Inside Leaves The World Speechless;-
http://en.newsner.com/the-castle-was-abandoned-after-a-fire-in-1932-83-years-later-whats-inside-leaves-the-world-speechless/about/wow,travel

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/ca2b67f10fa297c0e7716c04fb96ec72.png

Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers is a castle located in the middle of the woods
in the Poitou-Charentes region of France.

The stronghold dates to the thirteenth century
and was originally called Motte Bauçay (or Baussay).
The Motte Baussay was taken twice by the English in the Middle Ages
and devastated during the French Revolution.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/597e8c07525a98a7ed1c884078a10d9e.png

It was bought in 1809 by François Hennecart,
a wealthy businessman who undertook to restore its former glory.
But it passed in 1857 to Baron Joseph Lejeune.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/15af90f3a6033e2fcde25601fdae558a.png

In 1932, a major fire destroyed most of the buildings in the castle.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/ce362c1a49002132ab5d3f6faf938887.png

Quietly purchased in 2015 by General Motors heir
Mark Henderson,Toronto,
who is undertaking to restore the chateau
to the surviving documents of the 1809 plan.
It will be his home on occasion and from Mr. Henderson's estate
will be left in trust, along with the funds,
to the people of France in perpetuity.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/c5da46c6f2b4e5b2ce3a70747a96a081.png

It was partially destroyed by a great fire March 13, 1932,
just after the baron Robert Lejeune, then owner of the castle,
had been installing new central heating.

The castle now remains in ruins.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/91b84200dfdb0d7b43112b196bf7175d.png

Only the chapel behind the castle was spared
and still in reasonable condition.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/b37a23176cf77a5a63464020158d53f6.png

Its moat and walls tells of a place with a rich history
of elegance, aristocracy and intrigue.

No matter where you turn, you can see how nature has conquered
the balconies and the high arches.
But centuries ago, this castle was a place for the rich and the famous.

If you look closely, you can imagine the castle in its former glory. Magnificent!

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/17e1bc22bb4173de0b5af14cb3d4a368.png

The castle used to belong to the famous Bauçay family.
They are said to have had close relations with several generations
of the French royal family.

During the Middle Ages, England conquered the castle
on two different occasions
and it soon became known as a lace where noblemen
held extravagant parties.

But the festivities soon ended… During the the French Revolution,
the castle was completely destroyed.

In 1809, François Hennecart, a rich Frenchman, bought the castle.
He wanted to restore everything to its former glory.

About 50 years later, it was taken over by Lejeune Edgar,
a wealthy relative of Napoleon III.

Once again, the castle’s beautiful arches and halls
were filled with prominent guests.

Everything was built to impress. Just look at the windows in the chapel.

http://cdn3.newsner.com/attachments/images/000/216/101/newsner_default/macro1.png?1464275797

The chapel is the only part that is still intact.

One of the cellar vaults in the basement is open to visitors.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/73bb3a8fa38e531476dd0e7625119660.png

Although centuries have passed since this beautiful castle was built,
some parts of it are still preserved.

Unfortunately, much of the building was destroyed in a fire in 1932.
A library filled with rare books, antique furniture and valuable paintings were burnt by the flames.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/3f8d22586ce6107118e61d969c1dea44.png

After the fire, the castle was left untouched for decades, until 1981,
when maths teacher Marc Deyemer bought the land
with the hope of restoring the buildings.

But since Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers had been abandoned
for so many years, nature had taken over.
Plants and trees had slowly began to conceal the castle’s former glory.

Marc Deyemer unfortunately didn’t finish his dream project
and the castle remained in ruin.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/c3e5517895176078fa075c2e59b1e708.png

Later, the surrounding forest and Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers
were sold to French bank Crédit Lyonnais.
They divided the land to be able to sell smaller parts of it so now,
many different landowners own different parts of the area.

In recent years several non-profit organisations
have been created to rebuild the castle,
but so far nothing has been done.
Nature continues to rule, year after year.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/e8a6f6bd1c2d8bb10f4fbedc9274ace6.png

Hard to argue that Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers
isn’t an incredible sight in its winter glory.

Regardless, doesn’t it just look like the most magical place?

Won't someone save this seriously forgetten castle?

Les Monts d'Arrée, Britanny, Finistère, where i live.
Beautiful and very mystical place, many people call this place like " middle earth", close to " Rohan place" in the movie " Lord of the Rings".

Rare Vintage Photos of Paris Street Scenes Taken by Henry Fox Talbot in 1843

https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7HoQLz3sgJE/WF-eaOMPi8I/AAAAAAAAp40/iLvXB5zktJYGp1wJ2IT_k5fWV0W_Bx3_ACLcB/s640/Paris%2BStreet%2BScenes%2BTaken%2Bby%2BHenry%2BFox %2BTalbot%2Bin%2B1843%2B%25281%2529.jpg

William Henry Fox Talbot (1800 – 1877) was a British scientist, inventor and photography pioneer who invented the salted paper and calotype processes, precursors to photographic processes of the later 19th and 20th centuries. His work in the 1840s on photomechanical reproduction led to the creation of the photoglyphic engraving process, the precursor to photogravure.

Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers

What’s Inside Leaves The World Speechless;-
http://en.newsner.com/the-castle-was-abandoned-after-a-fire-in-1932-83-years-later-whats-inside-leaves-the-world-speechless/about/wow,travel

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/ca2b67f10fa297c0e7716c04fb96ec72.png

Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers is a castle located in the middle of the woods
in the Poitou-Charentes region of France.

The stronghold dates to the thirteenth century
and was originally called Motte Bauçay (or Baussay).
The Motte Baussay was taken twice by the English in the Middle Ages
and devastated during the French Revolution.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/597e8c07525a98a7ed1c884078a10d9e.png

It was bought in 1809 by François Hennecart,
a wealthy businessman who undertook to restore its former glory.
But it passed in 1857 to Baron Joseph Lejeune.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/15af90f3a6033e2fcde25601fdae558a.png

In 1932, a major fire destroyed most of the buildings in the castle.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/ce362c1a49002132ab5d3f6faf938887.png

Quietly purchased in 2015 by General Motors heir
Mark Henderson,Toronto,
who is undertaking to restore the chateau
to the surviving documents of the 1809 plan.
It will be his home on occasion and from Mr. Henderson's estate
will be left in trust, along with the funds,
to the people of France in perpetuity.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/c5da46c6f2b4e5b2ce3a70747a96a081.png

It was partially destroyed by a great fire March 13, 1932,
just after the baron Robert Lejeune, then owner of the castle,
had been installing new central heating.

The castle now remains in ruins.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/91b84200dfdb0d7b43112b196bf7175d.png

Only the chapel behind the castle was spared
and still in reasonable condition.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/b37a23176cf77a5a63464020158d53f6.png

Its moat and walls tells of a place with a rich history
of elegance, aristocracy and intrigue.

No matter where you turn, you can see how nature has conquered
the balconies and the high arches.
But centuries ago, this castle was a place for the rich and the famous.

If you look closely, you can imagine the castle in its former glory. Magnificent!

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/17e1bc22bb4173de0b5af14cb3d4a368.png

The castle used to belong to the famous Bauçay family.
They are said to have had close relations with several generations
of the French royal family.

During the Middle Ages, England conquered the castle
on two different occasions
and it soon became known as a lace where noblemen
held extravagant parties.

But the festivities soon ended… During the the French Revolution,
the castle was completely destroyed.

In 1809, François Hennecart, a rich Frenchman, bought the castle.
He wanted to restore everything to its former glory.

About 50 years later, it was taken over by Lejeune Edgar,
a wealthy relative of Napoleon III.

Once again, the castle’s beautiful arches and halls
were filled with prominent guests.

Everything was built to impress. Just look at the windows in the chapel.

http://cdn3.newsner.com/attachments/images/000/216/101/newsner_default/macro1.png?1464275797

The chapel is the only part that is still intact.

One of the cellar vaults in the basement is open to visitors.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/73bb3a8fa38e531476dd0e7625119660.png

Although centuries have passed since this beautiful castle was built,
some parts of it are still preserved.

Unfortunately, much of the building was destroyed in a fire in 1932.
A library filled with rare books, antique furniture and valuable paintings were burnt by the flames.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/3f8d22586ce6107118e61d969c1dea44.png

After the fire, the castle was left untouched for decades, until 1981,
when maths teacher Marc Deyemer bought the land
with the hope of restoring the buildings.

But since Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers had been abandoned
for so many years, nature had taken over.
Plants and trees had slowly began to conceal the castle’s former glory.

Marc Deyemer unfortunately didn’t finish his dream project
and the castle remained in ruin.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/c3e5517895176078fa075c2e59b1e708.png

Later, the surrounding forest and Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers
were sold to French bank Crédit Lyonnais.
They divided the land to be able to sell smaller parts of it so now,
many different landowners own different parts of the area.

In recent years several non-profit organisations
have been created to rebuild the castle,
but so far nothing has been done.
Nature continues to rule, year after year.

http://i.picasion.com/resize82/e8a6f6bd1c2d8bb10f4fbedc9274ace6.png

Hard to argue that Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers
isn’t an incredible sight in its winter glory.

Regardless, doesn’t it just look like the most magical place?

Won't someone save this seriously forgetten castle?

The Catacombs of Paris (French: Catacombes de Paris) are underground ossuaries in Paris, France, which hold the remains of more than six million people in a small part of the ancient Mines of Paris tunnel network.

Extending south from the former city gate Barrière d’Enfer ("Gate of Hell") beneath Rue de la Tombe-Issoire, the ossuary was founded when city officials had two simultaneous problems: a series of cave-ins beginning 1774, and overflowing cemeteries, particularly Saint Innocents.

Nightly processions of bones from 1786 to 1788 transferred remains from cemeteries to the reinforced tunnels, and more remains were added during later years.

The underground cemetery became a tourist attraction on a small scale from the early 19th century, and has been open to the public on a regular basis since 1874 with surface access from a building at Place Denfert-Rochereau in the extreme southern part of the city of Paris.

The Catacombs are among the 14 City of Paris Museums managed by Paris Musées since January 1, 2013. The catacombs are known formally as l'Ossuaire Municipal or Catacombes officiels and have been called "The World's Largest Grave" due to the number of remains buried.

Although the ossuary comprises only a small section of the underground "carrières de Paris" ("quarries of Paris"), Parisians presently often refer to the entire tunnel network as "the catacombs".

28 Vintage Photographs Documented Everyday Life at Paris's Central Fresh Food Market 'Les Halles' in the 1950s

Les Halles de Paris, usually simply Les Halles, was Paris's central fresh food market. Located in the heart of the city, it was demolished in 1971 and replaced with the Forum des Halles, a modern shopping mall built largely underground and directly connected to the massive RER and métro transit hub of Châtelet-Les-Halles.

I like the way the French call their nation as 'La France!'
(The France... incase anyone should confuse it with any other France?! :icon_ask:)
This is the authentic and one and only France.
