About this work
A Friedrich von Martens panoramic silver albumen print ca. 1844-1856. Taken in Paris, this photograph is of a neighborhood in rubble. On the left side of the photograph there is what appears to be the remains of a building. Individuals can be seen amongst the waste. In the center of the photograph is the profile of a building with an advertisment "Vasseur-Osteologie et Danatomie" and "Hotel Universatie Meuble." At the bottom right advertisments for "vetemens" and "neogens" hang on another building. In the distance there are the tops of cathedrals.
