Champs-Elysees

Text and images copyright (c) 1995 Carolyn Daily O'Connor - used with permission.
These Fin du Siecle pedestrians can take a leisurely stroll down Le Champs-Elysees, because they probably got there on the Metro. Look down the row of three lamp posts on the right. You'll see a man sitting on a keg on a horse-drawn cart. Just to the right of the cart is the entrance to the Station du Metropolitain.

This postcard is by LL, sought out by collectors of old Paris views for the quality of his work. In the original, I can see the detail of the lace trim on the dresses of the three women in the right foreground.
