Perspective de l'Avenue du Bois de Boulogne', Paris, photograph, inscription: '620 PARIS. - Perspective de l'Avenue du Bois de Boulogne', photographer: X photo., c. 1880 - c. 1900, A wide tree-lined avenue stretches into the distance with a large arch visible at the far end, flanked by rows of trees and buildings partially visible above the foliage; horse-drawn carriages occupy the roadway with drivers and passengers, some holding umbrellas, while people walk along the pavement and stand near piles of gravel; in the foreground a person in a cloak walks on the road and another man in a suit and hat stands near the curb, with a child nearby; shadows from the trees fall across the pavement and the scene has a sepia-toned, aged appearance.
