Description: | This is a representation of Paris, seen from the river Seine. The two towers of Notre-Dame may be seen to the right, as well as the spire of the Ste Chapelle. The large building to the left is the Louvre, still with a medieval tower, the Tour de Bois, dating from the fourteenth century. The wooden bridge in front of the Pont-Neuf is the Pont Rouge, also called Pont Sainte-Anne in the honour of Anne of Austria, and Pont-Barbier, which was washed downstream by flooding in 1684. The painting appears to be unfinished, especially in the bridges and background areas. | Subjects: | townscape (Paris); figure; buildings and gardens | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: French School Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8923... | Go to resource |
