EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph of the picturesque village of Eze, nestled in the French Riviera during the Victorian era. The image, captured by an unidentified photographer from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a bygone era of elegance and charm. The quaint stone houses, adorned with vibrant bougainvillea vines, cling to the steep hillside, leading the eye up to the ruins of the ancient castle perched at the summit. The village, bathed in the soft glow of twilight, is illuminated by the warm light of a lantern, casting long shadows on the cobblestone streets. The Victorian period, marked by its ornate decoration and emphasis on morality and social reform, is beautifully represented in this photograph. The women in long, flowing skirts and bonnets, and the men in tailored suits and top hats, add to the sense of historical authenticity. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse of life in a small French village during the late 1800s. The Edwardian and early 20th century were a time of great change, with the rise of industrialization, the emergence of new technologies, and the beginning of the modern era. Yet, in this photograph, we are reminded of the simple pleasures and timeless beauty of a village like Eze, untouched by the passage of time. The vintage lantern slide, with its faded edges and slight imperfections, adds to the nostalgic charm of the image. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art, but also a valuable historical document, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the French Riviera.
