Gezicht op de Colonne Vendôme in Parijs before 1840

A. Provost’s “Gezicht op de Colonne Vendôme in Parijs” is an early 19th-century lithograph of the Colonne Vendôme in Paris. The lithograph depicts the column as it stands in the Place Vendôme, surrounded by the city’s architecture. The scene is framed by a simple, decorative border and is presented in a slightly hazy, romantic style. The lithograph likely served as a souvenir for tourists or as a historical record of the monument, and it is a testament to the enduring visual impact of the Colonne Vendôme.
