EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Pont au Change and the Pont Notre Dame" during the years 1815-20. The color engraving, created by Henri Courvoisier-Voisin, beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment. Located in Paris, France, these iconic bridges are depicted with remarkable detail and precision. The image highlights the bustling traffic on both sides of the river Seine, with barges gracefully sailing beneath the arches. On the right bank, we catch a glimpse of a Chevalier Opticien shop at the corner - one among four such establishments in that area during that time. The composition offers a unique perspective from Quai de la Corse towards Quai de l'Horloge and Notre Dame Cathedral. It transports us back to an era characterized by Napoleonic rule and subsequent restoration efforts. This engraving serves as a testament to both architectural grandeur and artistic craftsmanship. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, it is worth noting that it belongs to eArchives Charmet's archives and is now out of copyright restrictions. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate Nicephore Niepce's friendship with Charles Chevalier without necessarily associating them directly with this particular optical shop. Overall, this print invites us into a vivid tableau of early 19th-century Parisian life while celebrating its rich history through Courvoisier-Voisin's skillful interpretation.
