About this work

Photo album in red linen binding. The title on the front cover is decorated with a frame and an ear of corn in relief and gold print. The endpapers are made of beige paper. The album contains eighteen leaves with gold-gilt edges. Each page has one pasted photograph surrounded by a frame with leaf motifs and the initials 'ND', an indication that the album may have been made or compiled by the French photographer Étienne Neurdein. These are prints of sights in Paris, such as the Panthéon, the Tour Saint-Jacques, the Colonne Vendôme, the Opéra, the Palais du Luxembourg and the Palais du Trocadéro, the Place de la Concorde, the Rue de Rivoli, the Boulevard Saint-Martin and the Boulevard des Italiens, the Porte Saint-Martin, the Hôtel des Invalides, Notre-Dame, the Madeleine and the Sainte-Chapelle. Also included are images of the Bois de Boulogne and the park at the Palace of Versailles.
