Gezicht op Parijs met de Arc de Triomphe before 1888

This photogravure by Albert Londe, titled "Gezicht op Parijs met de Arc de Triomphe," is a depiction of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, created before 1888. The image, likely from a book on photography, features the iconic Parisian monument in a detailed, though somewhat grainy, print. Londe, a French artist active from 1858 to 1917, was known for his work in photography and photogravure, a process using an etched copper plate to produce high-quality images. While the exact date of creation is unknown, this print demonstrates the growing interest in capturing urban landscapes with the new medium of photography.
