Informations supplémentaires

Cette image peut avoir des imperfections car il s’agit d’une image historique ou de reportage.

The image is of the renown cathedral structure and of the city square, Parvis Notre-Dame where hundreds of people have gathered. The photographer must have climbed to an upper level of the building on the west side of Rue de la Cite to be able to photograph across the square. The photographer’s note on a small print of this image mailed home reads that it was “one of the religious holidays. Loudspeakers allow everyone to hear.” There is scaffolding against the north cathedral tower, apparently for repairs being made after damage during the actual liberation battle. Photographer Clarence Inman was 25-26 years old while stationed for World War II in Paris (Nov 1944-May 1945) and London (June-November 1945). He was a US Navy Reserve Chief Petty Officer attached to the Field Photo Branch of the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS). The founder and commander of this unit was legendary film director John Ford. Field Photo had missions across the globe during the war. Clarence Inman’s work was largely connected to the Intelligence Photographic Documentary Project which surveyed the existing conditions of Continental Europe ports and transportation infrastructure. This project also was tasked with assembling photo documentation for the war trials in Nuremberg. Inman created many quality photographic images while off duty and on foot in Paris, London, Copenhagen, and Nuremberg. After the war, he returned to his career as a life-long professional photographer in Los Angeles.
