EDITORS COMMENTS

It was a fateful day when the city fell to the invaders during World War II. The image portrays an atmosphere of occupation and military dominance. The photograph showcases rows of disciplined male soldiers, their uniforms crisp and precise as they march through Place de la Concorde with determination. An officer leads them, saluting proudly as they pass by this symbol of French national pride. The architecture surrounding them stands tall, reflecting both the grandeur of France and its vulnerability at that time. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only a conqueror's triumph but also the resilience of those who endured such challenging times.
