Belle Epoque

| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The Belle Époque (French for "Beautiful Era") was a period in European history that began during the late 19th century and lasted until World War I.
Occurring during the time of the French Third Republic and the German Empire, the Belle Époque was considered a "golden age" as peace prevailed between the major powers of Europe, new technologies improved people's lives, and the commercial arts adopted modern forms.
The Belle Époque was an era of great scientific and technological advancement in Europe and the world, in general. Inventions that either are associated with this era or became generally common in this era include the automobile, the aeroplane, the phonograph, the telephone, the cinématographe and the subway or underground railway. While many of these were pioneered in the United States, the automobile, in particular, was developed primarily in Europe. |
