Crowds in the streets of a French city

A dense crowd of men in caps and hats moves down a street between tall buildings, a vertical sign reading GARAGE on one side and a café awning on the other; people press around an open car inching across a square; on a wide square packed with people a ring of men dances hand in hand. The older catalogue places the scene at the Renault works in 1936. In May and June 1936, after the election victory of the Popular Front, some two million workers in France went on strike and occupied their factories.
