ABOUT THE PARIS PLANS:
In 1855, during the implementation of Haussmann's plan to renovate Paris, Prefect Georges-Eugène Haussmann ordered the creation of new detailed maps of the city. These maps were designed to transform Paris into a modern city with wide boulevards, public parks, and improved circulation. This ambitious project was hailed as a work of urban art by some, as it radically transformed the appearance and functionality of the French capital.
The new plans, meticulously drawn and detailed, not only guided construction work but also captivated the imagination of contemporary architects, urban planners, and artists. They were admired for their technical precision and ability to visualize a reimagined Paris. Today, these historical maps are sought after by collectors and urban history enthusiasts, symbolizing the elegance and grandeur of Paris during a time of radical transformation.
Paris city maps around 1850, particularly those of Haussmann's plan, are symbols of historical fascination and admiration for the artistic and cartographic precision of the time, offering exclusive access to a key era in the evolution of the City of Light.
