This engraving titled "Fortifications de Paris sous Philippe-Auguste, Le Parloir aux Bourgeois, entre les portes Saint-Jacques et Saint-Michel" takes us back to 12th-century Paris. The image showcases the fortified walls of the city under the reign of King Philippe-Auguste, providing a glimpse into the historical significance and architectural marvels of that era. The scene depicts a bustling area known as "Le Parloir aux Bourgeois" located between the gates of Saint-Jacques and Saint-Michel. Here, we witness a vibrant gathering of townspeople engaged in various activities against the backdrop of towering stone walls. The intricate details captured by this French School engraving transport us to an age where fortifications were not only essential for defense but also served as centers for social interaction. Originally published in L'Art National by Henri du Cleuziou in 1883, this print offers a valuable insight into Parisian history. It allows us to appreciate how these fortifications played a crucial role in shaping the city's identity and protecting its inhabitants during medieval times.
