Photograph Captured Paris Flood, 1924
In this photograph, we can see the aftermath of the Paris flood of 1924. The floodwaters rose to a point where the road became completely inaccessible, forcing pedestrians to walk through the cold water and soak their clothes. However, a resourceful group of individuals came up with a clever solution. They improvised a bridge using chairs that were available nearby.
By placing them in a long row, they provided people with a way to cross from one side to the other without having to step into the large and murky puddle that could ruin their outfits.
