ALFRED FRANCOIS HAUTECOEUR (1800-1900) The Concorde Obelisk, Paris 1865 Albumen print titled in the negative, stamped on the back 20.5 x 27.5 cm Note: Erected on Place de la Concorde in 1836, the Luxor Obelisk is one of the major symbols of the Parisian landscape and of the XIXᵉ century taste for ancient Egypt. Quickly incorporated into emblematic views of the capital, it became a favored subject for photographers documenting urban transformations. Here, Alfred François Hautecœur delivers a precise representation, attentive to the monument's place in its architectural environment. The albumen print, titled in the negative and stamped on the back, bears witness to a production intended for the dissemination and conservation of Parisian visual heritage.
