Vue du Pont Neuf, Paris
Etching, 1630, Lieure 668 iv/v, 161 x 336 mm. Generally fine impression, the background at the left weakening slightly, as described by Lieure for this state, on laid paper with an unidentified watermark (griffin?) and with narrow margins; slight paper deformations at the upper corners from old hinges. The state is after the reduction of the plate margin at the bottom but before the late printings. This is one of Callot’s two large views of Paris, both crowded with people and action and a world away from the typical dry, topographical views produced by so many of his contemporaries.
