About this work

Paris was radically rebuilt in the second half of the 19th century. Along with scores of new streets, many new buildings were erected, including the Nouvel Opéra, Sacré-Coeur, and the Eiffel Tower. The Paris firm of Delmaet et Durandelle, specialized in architectural photography, followed the progress of all three buildings. They also photographed individual details one by one.
