Bois de Boulogne- Allee de Longchamps
Photograph
The image captures a street during the pre-automobile age. The street is wide enough for people on bicycles and horse drawn buggies to share the road with room to spare. The woman hold parcels and wear dresses and hats while men wear everyday suits and hats. The street is lined with trees and a sidewalk for walkers. There are also chairs lining the sidewalk for people to sit in the shade and rest.
