EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Maison Latapie, located at 4-8 Rue de la Fontaine in Lourdes, France, during the 1910s. The image features Madame and Mademoiselle Latapie, proudly standing on their balcony, overlooking the bustling streets below. The balcony, adorned with vibrant flowers, offers a glimpse into the elegant and inviting atmosphere of the establishment. In the foreground, Father O'Toole from Limerick, Ireland, can be seen engrossed in the local newspaper, perhaps seeking news from home or simply enjoying a moment of respite. The pension or hotel, now known as Hotel St. Bernard, was a popular destination for pilgrims and travelers seeking refuge and hospitality in the sacred city of Lourdes. The photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of this bygone era. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Maison Latapie, which continues to welcome visitors from around the world to this day.
