"Ondergelopen Seine-oevers, verwoeste bruggen en een hengelaar tijdens overstroming van Parijs" is a black and white photograph by G. Dangereux, taken between 1910 and 1911, showcasing the aftermath of a flood in Paris. The image captures a desolate scene with the Seine River overflowing its banks, submerging the bridge and leaving behind a solitary fisherman on the flooded riverbank. This photograph serves as a powerful document of a historical event, capturing the resilience of Parisians in the face of adversity. The image, with its dramatic use of light and shadow, creates a sense of isolation and emphasizes the impact of the flood on the city. The image is a valuable historical document, offering insights into the challenges faced by the Parisian population in the early 20th century.
