Georges Michel's "Place de la Concorde" is a pencil drawing from 1773-1843. The work depicts a scene of the famous square in Paris, France, featuring a portion of the surrounding buildings and a glimpse of the Tuileries Garden. Michel, a renowned French artist known for his architectural drawings, captures the grandeur of the public space through a simple yet striking composition.
