A collection of 8 original engravings showing iconic landmarks and scenes of Parisian life.
Signed M. B. They date from the 1960’s .
Images include The Eiffel Tower, L’Arc De Triomphe, A Street Scene in Pigalle, A View of The Place Vendome, The Louvre and Les Invalides.
Size: The engraved part of each image varies only slightly. The largest measures 10 x 6.5 cms- others vary by only millimetres. The surround of each also varies since the paper on which the engravings are pressed is uneven but 22.5 x 14 is an average measure. The engravings are mounted, each in it’s own paper cover.
Condition. The engravings are marked occasionally by small spots of foxing but in the main clean. The mounts are tanned, slightly torn and a little marked so would probably need replacing. One corner is lightly creased.
Charming, light-hearted images. Very much of their time. Ideal for framing.
