Notes: A reproduction of and commentary on an album of photographs taken in 1898 by Lt. Jean-Marie Dorgans, a soldier in the 139th Infantry Regiment. The regiment was then stationed in the town of Aurillac, and the photographs mostly concern the life of the town. The present work compares the original photographs with the present day appearance of the locations photographed, and attempts to situate them within what is known of the history of the town at this time.
