EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Church of St. Laurent in Paris, as illustrated by Philippe Benoist for the publication "Paris dans sa splendeur" in 1861. The image transports us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages and bustling streets were part of everyday life. The church's stunning Flamboyant Gothic architecture is beautifully captured, with its intricate rose window and towering steeple dominating the skyline. The new facade, designed by Simon Claude Constant-Dufeux and built between 1863-66, adds a touch of neogothic elegance to this architectural masterpiece. In this lively street scene surrounding the church, we see soldiers marching alongside passersby going about their daily routines. A horse-drawn omnibus trundles along Boulevard Magenta while a cabman expertly navigates his carriage through the cobbled square. The atmosphere is filled with energy as people bustle around the train station nearby - Gare de l'Est - adding an air of anticipation and movement to the scene. The lamp-lit streets create a warm glow against which this snapshot of Parisian life unfolds. Benoist's skillful use of color lithography brings vibrancy to every detail, from the horses pulling carriages to the architectural intricacies that define this Second Empire era landmark. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic tribute to one of Paris' most iconic churches, capturing not only its grandeur but also providing us with a glimpse into daily
