RARE..The famous Merian panorama of 17th century Paris.Paris, an important contemporary visual record by one of the great engravers of his time.
The city is viewed from a vantage point in the present day Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, looking towards the south west, over the Hospitale de S.Louis, to the vast but now long-vanished fortifications of Étienne Marcel, across the city, Notre Dame just left of center, the Louvre and the Tuileries gardens to the right, continuing across the Seine to the left-bank and the open countryside beyond. The foreground includes a back-view self-portrait of the artist seated on a boulder sketching. This fine view is from Merian's `Topographia Franconiae' published in Frankfurt between 1648 and 1656 with text by Martin Zeiler.
The condition is overall very good,a good strong impression,there are 2 repairs(invisible) and folds as issued.This is an important and rare panorama.
