EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the early stages of the construction of the iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris. The montage combines two pictures, taken just a month apart, providing a unique glimpse into the rapid progress made during this monumental project. On the left side of the image, we see a snapshot captured on August 10th, 1887. At this point, only a skeletal framework stands tall against the sky. The intricate lattice-like structure begins to take shape as workers diligently toil away at its creation. Moving to the right side of the print, we observe an image taken on September 9th, 1887. In just under one month's time, significant advancements have been made in erecting this architectural marvel. The tower now reaches even greater heights and starts to reveal its grandeur. The combination of these two photos highlights both the ambition and skill required for such an ambitious undertaking. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess that would ultimately result in one of France's most beloved landmarks. As viewers gaze upon this historical piece captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), they are transported back in time to witness firsthand how an idea transformed into reality before their very eyes.
