About the Item
Title: Romantic View of Paris – A Rare 1832 Engraving by Thomas Kelly
Description: This hand-colored engraving, published by Thomas Kelly in 1832, offers a picturesque view of Paris, capturing the timeless charm and elegance of the city during the early 19th century. The composition features a serene scene of the Seine River with boats drifting gently, the iconic bridge connecting both banks, and grand architectural landmarks flanking the water.
The right side of the engraving prominently displays a stately building, while the left features the bustling urban skyline, adding depth and liveliness to the print. The inclusion of small figures on the riverbank and boats gives a human element to this romanticized depiction of the "City of Light."
What makes this print interesting:
1. Historical perspective: Provides a rare glimpse into 19th-century Paris, blending urban life with architectural grandeur.
2. Artistic detail: Fine engraving work enhanced with delicate hand-coloring brings vibrancy to the composition.
3. Collector's value: Published by Thomas Kelly, known for high-quality geographical and historical prints, this piece is both a decorative and historical treasure.
Condition report: Very good condition with vibrant coloring, intact margins, and crisp engraved details. Minor signs of age, such as slight toning, but overall well-preserved.
