The bookseller’s original description (in French)

Paris - Album Historique et Monumental est un ouvrage illustré de la catégorie livres anciens, dont la vocation est de retracer, à travers des textes et des images, le patrimoine architectural et historique de la capitale française. Conçu comme un album documentaire, il met en valeur les monuments emblématiques, les sites majeurs et les évolutions urbaines de Paris, offrant ainsi un panorama visuel et descriptif de son riche héritage. L’intérêt bibliophilique de ce type d’ouvrage réside dans sa capacité à documenter une époque révolue, souvent à travers des lithographies, des gravures ou des photographies anciennes, qui en font un témoignage précieux pour les amateurs d’histoire et d’art. L’exemplaire proposé ici, classé dans les revues et livres anciens, conserve un état matériel conforme à sa nature ancienne, témoignages d’un usage et d’un temps passés.
