1607 Bastille Cite Dame Joined Northwards Notre Prominent Seine
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Paris in 1607 with this stunning print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The view is looking northwards across the Cite, where the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral stands prominently in the center of the scene. To the east, you can see the imposing Bastille, a symbol of power and authority during this period in French history.
One interesting feature of this image is that the islands in the Seine River have not yet been joined together, giving us a glimpse into how different Paris looked over four centuries ago. The historical significance of this snapshot is truly captivating, allowing us to imagine what life was like in one of Europe's most famous cities during a time when kings and queens ruled with absolute power.
As you study this print closely, you can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages clattering down cobblestone streets and merchants calling out their wares. It's a reminder that even though times may change, some things remain constant - like our fascination with history and how it shapes our world today. So take a moment to appreciate this unique view of Paris from 1607 and let your imagination wander through its ancient streets and storied past.
