L'Arc de Triomphe, Paris, Vintage Print 1840
Posted By David Paul on at Dreamgifts
This poster features a reproduction of a print of L'Arc de Triomphe, Paris, France in 1840.
The print features well dressed citizens strolling in the open square below the monument. Two men are on horseback and a carriage containing passengers is drawn by a pair of horses. The print is characterized by a golden hue.
Although it is entitled Paris Daguerrotype No 40 L'Arc de Triomphe, it may not be a photographic daguerrotype as the long exposure time required would have led to most of the people and carriages in movement at the foot of the monument not rendered in the scene.
