Paris Street Scene, Charles Marville, 1865
Entitled: "Rue de Constantine" photographed by Charles Marville, 1865. In his capacity as official photographer of Paris, Marville photographed the large-scale modernization of the city carried out under Baron Haussmann, its new boulevards, parks, markets, and street lamps, as well as the picturesque narrow streets and quaint courtyards that would soon be razed to accommodate the grand design of Emperor Napoleon III. Marville's photograph of the rue de Constantine shows an expectant moment prior to demolition on the Ì_le de la CitÌ©.
