Buyer's Premium:

This chromolithograph by Charles Riviere is from Paris d’après la photographie by Maison Martin. Published by Michel and printed by Becquet Freres Paris 1867.
Rivière based his very accurate drawings on the newly invented medium – photography. Soon his art would be completely obsolete, as photography becoming steadily cheaper and would replace these kinds of albums. The views of the streets and monuments are very lively and charming.
