EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning black and white panorama of Paris, captured between 1850 and 1860 from the towers of Saint-Sulpice Church in the 6th arrondissement, offers a unique perspective of the city during the nineteenth century. The church, with its distinctive red-tiled roof and tall spire, dominates the left side of the image, while the sprawling metropolis of Paris unfolds before it. The Pantheon, with its iconic dome, can be seen in the distance, adding to the religious and historical significance of the scene. The intricate details of the cityscape are captured through the use of stereoscopic photography, a popular technique during the era, which allowed for a three-dimensional effect when viewed through a stereoscope. The image is a salted paper print, a common photographic process of the time, which produced high-quality, detailed images. The panorama provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the architectural and cultural heritage of Paris during the 19th century. The buildings, some of which no longer exist, offer a window into the city's history, while the absence of modern structures adds to the vintage charm of the image. The black and white palette further enhances the timeless quality of the photograph. The Museum of Carnavalet, a renowned Parisian institution, houses this precious piece of history in its extensive collection. The museum, dedicated to the history of Paris, is a must-visit for anyone interested in the city's rich past. This panorama of Paris taken from the towers of Saint-Sulpice church is a testament to the beauty and history of the city and a reminder of the power of photography to capture and preserve moments in time.
