EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Paris in the early 19th century. The image beautifully captures the Place de l'Hôtel de Ville, circa 1820, as depicted in Pierre Courvoisier's renowned collection "Vues de Paris" published in 1827. The scene showcases the architectural grandeur of this iconic square, with its magnificent City Hall building standing proudly at its center. The intricate details of the architecture are brought to life through Courvoisier's masterful engraving technique, highlighting every column and archway with precision. In this snapshot from history, we can also catch a glimpse of daily life during that time period. French citizens dressed in traditional attire fill the square, going about their day-to-day activities. The presence of uniformed National Guard soldiers adds an element of authority and security to the scene. Leonard de Selva's expertly captured photograph preserves this historical moment for us to admire today. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of Parisian architecture but also provides a window into a bygone era filled with charm and elegance. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time and reminded once again why Paris has always been regarded as one of the most enchanting cities in the world.
