EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant atmosphere of a flea market at the entrance of St Ouen, Paris in 1931. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Ernest Flammarion, who skillfully portrays the essence of this bustling scene. In his book "Paris" published in the same year, Flammarion showcases his talent for capturing everyday life in the city. The image depicts a group of women browsing through second-hand clothes and skirts displayed on racks. Their elegant attire reflects the fashion trends of the 1930s while adding a touch of Parisian charm to the scene. Among them is a Romany woman, her presence adding an air of mystery and exoticism to this already enchanting setting. The flea market itself exudes an authentic French ambiance with its narrow lanes and crowded avenue filled with people from all walks of life. It serves as a hub for trade and commerce, where locals gather to find unique treasures or simply immerse themselves in the lively atmosphere. Flammarion's monochrome composition beautifully captures every detail, emphasizing contrasts between light and shadow that add depth to each element within the frame. This print transports viewers back in time, allowing them to experience firsthand what it was like to wander through one of Paris' most iconic markets during this era. Overall, Ernest Flammarion's photograph offers us not only a glimpse into historical fashion but also an insight into daily life in early 20th century France – making it truly invaluable for any art
