This print showcases the "Project for the transfer of a new Hotel-Dieu on the Ile aux Cygnes, Paris" created by architect Bernard Poyet in 1787. The image depicts a circular section of the proposed hospital, featuring majestic columns, a dome, and an impressive facade.

The circular layout with a central plan creates an atmosphere of harmony and balance. The intricate details of this medical marvel are beautifully captured in this engraving. Located on what is now known as quai Branly, this project aimed to revolutionize healthcare facilities during its time. Its strategic position along the River Seine adds to its allure while providing easy access for patients and medical staff alike.
