EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century print depicts the iconic Pont-Neuf bridge as seen from the entrance to Place Dauphine, with the Hotel de Nevers and the Tour de Nesle in the foreground. The Grande Galerie and the new door of the Louvre can be glimpsed in the background. The image offers a glimpse into the bustling city life of Paris during the reign of King Henry IV of France, around 1640. The Pont-Neuf, the newest bridge in Paris at the time, is shown in all its grandeur, connecting the Ile de la Cité and the Left Bank. The Hotel de Nevers, a historic building located on the Ile de la Cité, is prominently displayed, with its elegant facade and ornate balconies. The Tour de Nesle, a former fortification, can be seen to the left, adding to the rich architectural tapestry of the scene. The Grande Galerie, a part of the Louvre Museum, is visible in the background, reflecting the importance of education and the arts during this period. The Louvre, a symbol of French heritage and history, is also shown, underscoring the significance of this location in the cultural and geographical fabric of Paris and France. The print captures the essence of daily life in Paris during the 17th century, with men and women going about their business, carriages passing by, and the hustle and bustle of the College des Quatre Nations. This image offers a unique window into the past, transporting us back to a time of grandeur, history, and cultural significance.
