The Bisson Frères captured the intricate detail of the west facade of Notre Dame de Poitiers in this striking photographic print, a stunning example of architectural photography of the 19th century. The photograph's focus on the ornate arches and sculptures of the doorway highlights the craftsmanship and artistry of the Romanesque period, and the stark black and white tones lend an air of historical significance to this iconic French landmark.
