This is a c. 1845 Jules Arnout view of Les Invalides in Paris, France. Looking south across the Esplanade des Invalides, the view depicts the north façade of the Hôtel des Invalides, with Bruant's door and arched pediment easily recognizable below Hardouin-Mansart's chapel dome. Drawn after a snowfall in Paris, snow blankets the esplanade and the façade and dome of Les Invalides. A horse drawn cart moves slowly up the esplanade in the foreground, with several carriages evident further in the background. Wheel tracks weave their way through the slushy street, which are apparently well traveled since the sidewalks are still blanketed in a fresh snow. Also, pairs and small groups of people are illustrated wandering their way through the neighborhood. (more details)

This is a c. 1845 Jules Arnout view of the Panthéon in Paris, France. The Panthéon, located in the Latin Quarter in the 5th arrondissement, was originally built as a church dedicated to St. Genevieve with the express purpose of houses the reliquary châsse containing her relics. The building was designed after a Greek cross with a massive portico inspired by the Pantheon in Rome. Construction on the Abbey of St. Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris, was completed in 1790. This, however, changed in 1791 during the French Revolution when the National Constituent Assembly declared that the Panthéon would be converted into a mausoleum for the internment of great Frenchmen. This secular monument has changed by to beig a church a handful of times, but today it plays the role of the burial place for French 'national heroes', some of whom include Voltaire, Rousseau, Alexandre Dumas, Jean Moulin, André Malraux, and Simone and Antoine Veil.

This is a c. 1845 Jules Arnout view of the Place du Carrousel and the Palais des Tuileries (Tuileries Palace) in Paris, France. The view illustrates the Place du Carrousel from the east and depicts a typical day in Paris. Parisians rush across the square, on foot, on horseback, and in carriages. All this activity takes place in the shadow of the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, constructed to commemorate Napoleon's military victories between 1806 and 1808. Based on the Arch of Constantine in Rome, the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel is topped by the Horses of Saint Mark from Saint Mark's Cathedral in Venice, which were brought to Paris by Napoleon in 1798 after he captured Venice. Behind the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel stands the Palais de Tuileries. This palace was the main royal residence for French monarchs from Henry IV through Napoleon III until it was burned down by the Paris Commune in 1871. The Palais des Tuileries was never rebuilt, although a campaign advocating for its reconstruction has been ongoing since 2003. (more details)
