EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Fete du Trone, Paris, France circa 1923" by Eugene Atget, takes us back in time to the enchanting era of early 20th century Paris. Atget, a renowned French photographer dedicated to preserving the architectural beauty and essence of his beloved city before it succumbed to modernization, perfectly captures the vibrant atmosphere of this festive occasion. The image showcases a carousel or merry-go-round at the heart of a bustling fairground during Fete du Trone (Feast of the Throne). The carousel's ornate design and intricately carved horses transport us to an era where such attractions were not only sources of joy but also works of art. Atget's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this photograph. From the joyful expressions on people's faces as they enjoy their ride on the carousel to the surrounding architecture that provides a glimpse into old Parisian streetscapes - every element tells a story frozen in time. As we admire this vintage archival piece from Ken Welsh's collection, we are reminded once again why Atget's work remains highly regarded today. His dedication and passion for documenting history through photography have left us with invaluable glimpses into a bygone era. This photograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an important historical artifact that allows us to connect with Paris' rich cultural heritage.
