A fantastic aerial view of central Paris with Notre-Dame Cathedral in the foreground, the river Seine running through the centre and the Arch de Triumph on the horizon.

Felix Benoist (1818 -1896) was a French painter, draftsman and printmaker of cities, monuments and landscapes. Condition: Good impression with nice hand colour. Stain from old mount to margins and two pieces of hinging tape to left and right margins, not affecting image. |
