About the piece

Created by Theodor Josef Hubert Hoffbauer in 1890, this painting offers a meticulous historical reconstruction of Paris during the late 16th century. From a vantage point atop the Louvre, the viewer looks across the Seine towards the Île de la Cité, capturing the architectural grandeur of Notre-Dame and the bustling activity of the river during the construction of the Pont-Neuf.
