About the Item

Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris is an original drawing in China ink and felt tip pen on cardboard realized in 1950 ca. by an Anonymous artist of the XX century. The State of preservation is very good. The artwork represents the landscape of the Sacré Coeur basilica where is a Catholic place of worship in Paris located on the top of the Montmartre hill in the 18th arrondissement, through intense black color, expressed by confident strokes, the Basilica is the highest place in the city after the Eiffel Tower, the Montparnasse skyscraper and Les Invalides. The architectural style of the Sacre Coeur is strongly inspired by that of the Périgueux Cathedral, always designed by the architect Abadie and known for the different domes present. The structure is characterized by the external material, that is the Château-Landon (Seine-et-Marne) stone, frost-resistant travertine capable of becoming even whiter and shinier with age and contact with rain. At the entrance, in front of the three-arched portico, there are the statues of Saints Joan of Arc and Louis of the French. In the bell tower, located behind the apse, there is the Savoiarde, the name with which the main bell is known, with an explicit reference to the annexation of Savoy in 1895; it weighs 19 tons and 34 horses were needed to carry it to the top of Montmartre. It is currently the largest bell in France. The artwork characterized by a well-balanced composition, showing the beauty of the historical city.
