EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to 19th century Paris, showcasing the iconic Hotel des Invalides and its enchanting surroundings. The daguerreotype, captured by M. C. Philipon, beautifully captures the architectural grandeur of this historic landmark. Hotel des Invalides stands as a testament to French military history and is renowned for its stunning golden dome that dominates the city's skyline. Originally built as a hospital and retirement home for war veterans by Louis XIV in 1670, it now serves as a museum dedicated to France's military past. The engraving showcases not only the magnificent facade of Hotel des Invalides but also provides glimpses of its picturesque surroundings. Lush greenery surrounds the building while elegant pathways lead visitors towards this majestic structure. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but imagine ourselves strolling through these very streets in centuries gone by.

This print is more than just a visual representation; it encapsulates history frozen in time. It invites us to explore Paris' rich cultural heritage and immerse ourselves in its timeless beauty.
