This is a family film taken by my grandparents, Rose Ellen and Julian Samuel Stein, Sr. with my father, Julian Stein, Jr. and Gertrude Stein. They visited as often as possible, considering that our family lived in Baltimore and cousin Gertrude lived in Paris.
Do you have any published stories about your family?
Is your father the little boy?
Gertrude and Alice lived in my grandmother's house, where my family still lives to this day.
So cool!
Only 85 years ago but it's like staring into another world. I wonder what footage of us people will be watching 100 or 200 years from now, and what will they think?
an incredible glimpse into the past
thank you!!
This is wonderful to see. Thank you so much for sharing your family film with the world. It is important history. For those of us who study and learn about Gertrude Stein, it is delightful to see this, to see her in this context. Your generosity is appreciated. It is beautiful in and of itself.
That's Corbusier's Villa Stein. I've seen photos but never film. Thanks for sharing.
thank you,. fascinating. G.
Thank you for this!
August 1928, to be exact.
wait i thought 2018 was the lost generation its happening again except this time i have lost in space on. this lost generation got lost in space.
anyone else think the first building shown looks strangely modern?
It is not strange that the first building looks modern. Modernism was the Achitectural Movement in the 20's. Being modern it's a 1900 thing, not our century thing. Le Corbusier, Mies Van der Rohe are Modernists. Of Course the first building shown it's modern. It's not strange, it's an obvious and normal thing.
What’s unusual is that this is a private residence. We aren’t used to seeing private homes built in this style. We see it more in commercial buildings or other public structures.
wow...thank you.
so fleeting
It's also crazy to think that 99% of the people shown... are dead.
CodeBlack404 I had the same morbid thought..everyone strolling about living their lives as you and I do now...and they are all dead now....as you and I will be too someday.
I would like to get a copy of this. Where did you get this? And who got the right for a eventual broadcast. Thanks a lot
wait i thought 2018 was the lost generation except this is not as lost. huh watching lost in space at 4 am while i am lost in space just like how this generation got lost lost in outer space
