« Avec son nouveau livre, #DividingParis: Urban Renewal and Social Inequality (1852-1870), #EstherDaCostaMeyer, professeure d’art et d’archéologie à Princeton, invite à voir la capitale autrement. Le #Paris des touristes n’est pas tant le Paris authentique qu’une mise en scène du #SecondEmpire et du baron #Haussmann – un triomphe du capitalisme au détriment des classes populaires. »

#Paris may not be best known for its fountains, but the #Medici #Fountain in the Luxembourg Gardens is always worth a visit. It was originally constructed in 1630 for Marie de Médicis, the queen regent of France (and a very forceful, unsubtle person). The entire fountain was moved by 30 meters and altered a bit when Baron #Haussmann rerouted the traffic arteries of Paris during 1864-1866.

Charles #Marville (1813–79) was commissioned by Napoleon III to document districts doomed by crews under Georges-Eugène #Haussmann, in the name of urban renewal. Countless mysteries of #MedievalParis, lost forever, were imaged by his lens—they're world treasures; a legacy of uninhabited memory. Haunted.
