In 1906, France had many student associations. The merging of these associations into a single one took place in Lille in May 1907. It was named UNEF: National Union of Student Associations of France. The UNEF only deals with French issues. International matters were deferred to the International Congress, which was held in September 1907 in Bordeaux and attended by national associations from various countries. In student circles, studious congresses are accompanied by many festive moments.

Description:
Many photos from that time show these student parties as predominantly male. The men usually wear a faluche, a large velvet beret that has been in fashion for nearly 20 years. In this context, Cappiello shows us such a party, where wine and cheerfulness are clearly present.
