Towers, palaces, and gardens fill the nearer bank, the Seine drawn between them, while open fields and a faded sky close off the far edge of the view.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCaspar Merian made it in Frankfurt, after his father, the elder Matthäus Merian, in the same great map trade. It led off the Topographia Galliae, a broad description of France set out with the writer Martin Zeiller, and shows the city much as the Merians recalled it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA key marks fifty-six spots around the city: churches, palaces, colleges, and town gates, named along the lower base. The Île de la Cité splits the river in two, the Louvre and the Ville stand in front, and the schools of the Université lie beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis map stands as a testament to the Paris of Louis XIII, set down years afterward, offering a window into a city still held inside its walls. One of the most atmospheric old views of Paris, it lends a dignified, gallant poise to any living room, office, or study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Historic Prints","offers":[{"title":"18x24 Inch","offer_id":67827671924925,"sku":"ENMAP0854_1824L","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x30 Inch","offer_id":67827671957693,"sku":"ENMAP0854_2430L","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/5459\/3725\/files\/18Ds_UMb2qIIXP5E7QXZWaGXfdYr_pvYY_w1000.jpg?v=1792312548","url":"https:\/\/historicprints.com\/products\/1655-paris-france-panoramic-city-view-print","provider":"Historic Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
