1968réf. 4701Paris: NP 1968. A large 40 cm x 29.5cm black and white silver print / silver gelatin photograph of a Paris wall in May 1968. The photograph shows a poster of Hitler hiding behind a mask of Charles de Gaulle. He is wearing the Cross of Lorraine as his armband. The Free French forces in world war 2 under de Gaulle had used this symbol. This is pinned over a background which states "CRS SS" multiple times. The CRS compagnies républicaines de sécurité was the National Reserve Force to deal with strikes and demonstrations. In fact this slogan dates back to 1948 when the CRS was first formed. The wall also shows a hand written sign for a manifestation in the evening of the 19th at St Lazare. Public demonstrations were often and are still often held in the space in front of the St Lazare station. This is almost certainly a large print of a reportage / press photograph of the time. In red ink to the reverse is written "68." The central poster was used in the 1968 student riots and although we have been unable to trace this photograph there is an "internet ghost" of it which states it was taken in May 1968. Condition is excellent with no significant marks or dirt to it. . Grande photographie argentique noir et blanc 40 cm x 295 cm d'un mur de Paris en mai 1968. La photographie montre une affiche d'Hitler cachée derrière un masque de Charles de Gaulle qui porte la Croix de Lorraine en guise de brassard. Ce dernier porte la Croix de Lorraine en guise de brassard les forces françaises libres de la Seconde Guerre mondiale sous la direction de de Gaulle avaient utilisé ce symbole. Le tout est épinglé sur un fond où l'on peut lire plusieurs fois « CRS SS ». Les CRS compagnies républicaines de sécurité étaient la force de réserve nationale chargée de gérer les grèves et les manifestations. En fait ce slogan remonte à 1948 date de la création des CRS. Le mur montre également une pancarte écrite à la main pour une manifestation dans la soirée du 19 à St Lazare. Les manifestations publiques étaient souvent et sont encore souvent organisées dans l'espace devant la gare St Lazare. Il s'agit très certainement d'un grand tirage d'un reportage ou d'une photographie de presse de l'époque. Au verso on peut lire « 68 » à l'encre rouge. L'affiche centrale a été utilisée lors des émeutes étudiantes de 1968 et bien que nous n'ayons pas été en mesure de retrouver cette photographie il existe un « fantôme internet » de celle-ci qui indique qu'elle a été prise en mai 1968. L'état de l'affiche est excellent elle ne présente aucune marque ou salissure significative. NP unknown
