Description from the seller

Set of 11 stereoscopic plates 4.5x10.7 cm on glass plate — Paris, Val-de-Grâce & Libération (1944) + Original box

Remarkable and exceptional set of 11 original stereoscopic negatives on glass plates in the 4.5x10.7 cm format, kept in their original storage box. This historic lot presents a striking double testimony: the tranquility of Parisian strolls and monumental Val-de-Grâce architecture, followed by photographs of rare intensity depicting the battles and tremors of the Liberation of Paris in August 1944.

Complete description of the views in the lot:

1. Parisian Heritage & Historic Views of Val-de-Grâce:
— Val-de-Grâce Chapel and Dome: Stunning architectural perspectives and downward-looking views from the heights, including the Panthéon and Montmartre.
— Corridors and Cloisters: Views of the Val-de-Grâce cloister and the bronze statue of Baron Dominique-Jean Larrey, famous military surgeon and pioneer of emergency medicine.
— Parisian Leisure: Scenes of relaxation in the Bois de Vincennes (children playing by the water between Vincennes and Nogent).

2. The Liberation of Paris & Testimonies of August 1944:
— Paris Panorama: Striking views of the capital dominated by Notre-Dame Cathedral.
— Police Prefecture: Historical clichés of the Prefecture of Police on the Île de la Cité at the time of the fighting of the Liberation of Paris in August 1944.
— Aftermath of the battles: Views of burnt-out vehicles and scenes of bombardment (burnt truck and car on Place Maubert on 20 August 1944).
