Headline France: "The day of an office worker in Paris" by Robert Doisneau, 1959

Description Victims of the city : Denise F., aged 21, is one of the young women who receive the public at the central administration of the "Sécurité Sociale", the French sickness insurance scheme. Her husband being in the army, her day is taken up by office work, long and tiring journeys to and from the office, household chores and visits to her own and her husband's families, who help her to take care of her 6 month-old baby, Marc. For a woman who works in a large city, there is the inevitable rush to catch the train to and from the suburbs. To catch the "metro" connection on another platform. To arrive at office or shop on time. To catch the grocer before he shuts. When the office closes, her work is not over and she starts again long before the office opening hour. And there are also glaring lights, noise, polluted air, and crowds with their nerves often on edge.

7.30 PM. She first looks after her baby. After a meal there is housework. Denise goes to bed at 10 PM.
