| Description |
The Ecole des Beaux-Arts opened in 1648 and was initially placed under the control of Louis XIV's government. It was eventually granted independence from the state by Napoléon III in 1863. This photograph was taken in 1853 by Charles Marville, who became well-known for capturing images of the older Parisian quarters prior to urbanization. In 1850, Marville was hired by the city of Paris to document the changes brought on during the demolition and reconstruction of the Haussmann era. He was named the official photographer of Paris in 1862. |
