About This Image

A wonderful waxed paper negative. This image may be by Regnault, who is known to have done a number of similar studies of the entrance to Sevres, although it came from Robert's descendants. Provenance: Louis Robert; descendants; Sotheby's London. See: Jammes and Janis, The Art of French Calotype, pl.XXXV for a nearly identical image taken from the same vantage point and attributed by Jammes to Regnault.
