THE MAKING OF THE VILLE LUMIÈRE PART 6
FROM THE BELLE EPOQUE THROUGH WORLD WAR II (1871-1945)
 
Paris quickly bounced back from the Franco-Prussian War and the Commune to enjoy the Belle Époque – 40 years of peace, prosperity and innovation that saw Paris thrive, reaching its peak with the Exposition Universelle de 1900. The Belle Époque ended abruptly in 1914 with the beginning of the first of two World Wars fought on French soil, but which spared Paris.

About the Presenter: Russell Kelley, author of The Making of Paris, will give the sixth in a series of  lectures accompanied by over 100 images, focusing on the structures that can still be seen today.

The series will continue through Lockdown, so keep checking the WICE website for the times of future lectures.

The meeting will take place using the Zoom video conferencing tool.
