Rue de la Paix seen from the square in front of the Opera Garnier in 1919, with the Column Vendôme left in the background. After the end of the First World War, many houses were decorated with flags of the Allies, as here a house of the British Lloyds Bank. Today the building is occupied by a German bank (Commerzbank).
