We are a group of people who love re-photographies (“before and after”, “then and now”) because of their potential to tell fascinating stories with just two pictures. There wasn’t really a central hub for this kind of art so we got to work and built re.photos. It’s a website that enables people to browse hundreds of pictures or upload and align their own.

Today we would like to share our excitement with you and show you some of the best pictures (in our opinion) our users contributed. Hopefully, these comparisons are as exciting for you as they are for us!

    Actually, the buildings were temporary in any case - those were all country pavilions for the Paris "Exposition Universelle of 1900" (1900 world's fair) and were torn down soon afterwards.

    Did the buildings on the river fall apart and need to be removed or was it that they didn't survive WWII? Or something else?

    No, the buildings you see in the older photo were national pavilions erected for the 'Exposition Universelle,' the world's fair in Paris c. 1889. Look at the various architecture representing different countries from around the world. The photo is slightly misleading as these pavilions were never meant to be permanent. The Eiffel Tower was also constructed for the world's fair and was at the time the tallest building ever made. The Eiffel Tower was also supposed to only be a temporary installation, but it was saved from destruction in 1909 when city officials predicted it might be useful as a radiotelegraph station. At the time, the Eiffel Tower was a very polarizing installation and many Parisians considered it a blight on their beautiful city, but since then it has obviously endured as a symbolic image of France. It really is a unique and remarkable building. :)

    Just so EVERYONE understands, the buildings were temporary exhibition structures, meant to be taken down at the end of the festival. As at Chicago, San Diego, and Buffalo, buildings like these were slapped together with plaster and fur, and demolished right after they'd served their purpose.

    these buildings were all built by the countries invited to show off what each had to offer to the world...The fair, visited by nearly 50 million, displayed many machines, inventions, and architecture that are now nearly universally known, including the Grande Roue de Paris Ferris wheel, Russian nesting dolls, diesel engines, talking films, escalators, and the telegraphone (the first magnetic audio recorder). Where have all the buildings gone.... Many of the buildings constructed for the Exposition Universelle were demolished after the conclusion of the exposition. Many of the buildings were built on a framework of wood, and covered with staff, which was formed into columns, statuary, walls, stairs, etc. After the fair was over, the buildings were demolished and all items and materials that could be salvaged and sold were "recycled".

    Engabreen Glacier, Norway, 1889 - 2010

    Axel Lindahl’s picture of Engabreen from 1889 shows the foot of the glacier, where there was only ice, glacial gravel, water and bare mountainsides in a seemingly cold and hostile landscape. Now, more than 120 years later, the valley has become far more fertile. Birch forest, shore meadows, willow thickets and marshland have established themselves, while the glacier arm has retreated far back up the mountainside.

    The Eiffel Tower, Paris, France, 1900 - 2017

    The Seine bank during the world’s fair of 1900.
    Next to the Eiffel Tower, the “Globe Céleste” was one of the main attractions. It was a monumental heavenly globe of 45 meters in diameter, in which visitors could sit in a chair, while panoramas of the solar system were passed over. The ball was carried by 4 pillars, between which stairs and elevators allowed the visitors the ascent.
    In the “Marerama”, the building with the four corner towers to the left, visitors were simulated to be on the deck of a ship with a panorama of the large Mediterranean ports.
    The exhibition pavilions located directly on the shore on the left were dedicated to navigation, trade and navigation.

    The Grinnell Glacier, Montana, USA, 1911 - 2008

    The Grinnell Glacier, Montana, USA, 1911 - 2008

    The 1911 photo shows Grinnell Glacier poised at the top of the waterfalls in the foreground and joined with what is now called Salamander Glacier in the background. Grinnell described this wall of ice as being 1,000 feet high in 1887. As of 2008, that wall of ice is gone and Grinnell Glacier is not even visible in the contemporary photograph. Instead, it is behind the buff-colored ridge just above the waterfalls. Salamander Glacier lies along the Garden Wall below the ridgeline. This glacier is thinning in the middle so rapidly that it will probably be in two pieces within a few years. To the upper left is the small, rounded glacier, Gem Glacier, that until recently had not shown signs of retreat. It, too, is now becoming smaller.

    Barricade of revolutionary Paris Commune in 1871 in the rue de la Paix (confluence Place Vendôme).
    In spring of 1871, it comes for an uprising in Paris of the workers and soldiers of the National Guard against the conservative government. In spontaneous elections a Paris city council (commune) is formed, whose members (communards) try to enforce the transformation of France into a socialist union of sovereign communities against the will of the central government. After bloody clashes the communards finally gain control of Paris.

    A better comparison would be a photo of the scene in 1945.

    I have never liked the photo from 1932 because every time I've seen it my abdomen tightens involuntarily! The one from 2011 would suggest that construction safety standards continue to need more study.

    I love how beautiful most of the structures are in Europe.....and if they were in the USA, they would have been torn down a long time ago for Trump Towers and Malls and Starbucks and Drug stores.

    The vehicle in the 1944 pic was a self-propelled howitzer called a "priest." Also the men next to it.

    2.4 billion years ago (Huronian Period) this would have been solid ice, then it melted, no humans in existence. 850 million years ago (Cryogenian Period) this would have been solid ice, then it melted, no humans in existence. 430 million years ago (Andean-Saharan Period) this would have been solid ice, then it melted, no humans in existence. 360 million years ago (Karoo Period) this would have been solid ice, then it melted, no humans in existence. 3 million years ago (Quaternary Period) this would have been solid ice, then it melted, no humans in existence. Now it's doing the same thing its always done ALWAYS and it's our fault?? LOL Imagine a car dealer selling a car. Every 3 days it breaks down and wont start. It's always done the same thing, since new. Then you buy it and on the third day it breaks down and everyone convinces you its your fault. Look, Earth needs to vary course in space by 0.001% for our temperature to adjust by 20c. We are not on rails!
